Will Almere City succeed or will PSV win brilliantly in Almere? Read our extensive preview and also play with our reliable Dutch bookmakers on VoetbalGokken.nl.

Hedwiges Maduro (coach Almere City): “We can do much better”

Almere City had a tough time last weekend at Fortuna Sittard in Limburg. Almere City coach Hedwiges Maduro has an explanation for that. “We are missing three important players right away, with Robinet also suffering an injury. That doesn’t help. Our selection is very thin, but we can do much better. Actually, we only got chances in the last ten minutes and you saw that we can play football. Then you are already 3-0 behind,” says Maduro.

“No fear of PSV”

This weekend’s match is against PSV, but with their home crowd behind them, Maduro wants his team to go for a result. “Compact is always the magic word when it comes to defending, but we also have to focus on attacking. PSV is a good team. We have to have very good team discipline and believe that we can get a result. That’s how we have to go into the match. Don’t be afraid, then everything will be fine,” says Maduro at the end of his preview.

Peter Bosz (PSV coach): “No worries for Almere City match”

PSV Eindhoven has already conquered the first position in the Eredivisie rankings, but coach Peter Bosz wants to keep the focus on it for the match against Almere City. Last season, the Eindhoven team did not have it easy against the Almere team. “You never play all matches at a top level. We played many matches very well, but sometimes you have matches that are difficult. You have to win those, so I am not at all worried about the match against Almere City”, says Bosz.

“Don’t think about it too lightly”

Joey Veerman indicated last weekend that the Eindhoven team is starting to think too amateurishly and that needs to change quickly, according to the trainer. “That will work out. This amateurish thinking, ‘it will be fine’, should of course never occur in the head. Then it will not be fine. We all know that, I think”, concludes the PSV trainer.

Statistics

Almere City FC is in fifteenth place with zero points. Maduro’s team conceded four goals in this new competition season and has not yet managed to score a single one. PSV is in first place. The team in Eindhoven won the first two matches and scored eight goals in those duels. The Eindhoven team conceded two. The two PSV players Johan Bakayoko and Hirving Lozano are among the top scorers at the moment.
