PEC Zwolle vs PSV Predictions

Zwolle lost 2-0 away at Groningen last weekend, while PSV played Groningen in midweek and ran out 3-1 winners in Eindhoven to remain in joint first place in the table alongside arch-rivals Ajax.

All of the stats point towards both teams scoring and PSV collecting all three points on Sunday and we’ve backed a final scoreline of 3-1.

The head to head record between these two clubs strongly favours PSV, as you would expect, and Sunday’s guests have won their last nine matches against Zwolle home and away. Both teams have scored in five of those last nine meetings and PSV have scored over 2.5 team goals in seven of the pairs’ last nine encounters, so you can see why we’ve predicted a 3-1 win for PSV this weekend.

The form of both sides heading into this weekend’s clash adds weight to our prediction of an away win, as Zwolle have lost three of their last six matches, while PSV are unbeaten in their last twelve games in all competitions and have won five of their last six matches. PSV have also won three of their four away games in the Eredivisie this season and have had no problems scoring goals on the road, which doesn’t bode well for Zwolle this weekend.

The performances of both clubs during the last month or so suggests that we will see goals at both ends of the pitch on Sunday, as both teams scored in four of Zwolle’s and four of PSV’s last six matches and the visitors have scored three or more team goals in five of their last six matches, another reason we’ve gone with 3-1 as our final score.

We’re confident that PSV will win and both teams will score on Sunday and have predicted a final scoreline of 3-1. PSV are the clear form favourites and have been scoring goals for fun of late, while Zwolle, who have a poor record against their guests, have also been scoring plenty of goals in recent weeks but haven’t managed to keep any clean sheets this season.
