ADO Den Haag v PSV Eindhoven
Football: Netherlands, Eredivisie 2009/2010

Ben Haag

ADO Den Haag is currently on the eleventh place in the ranking with 12 points from 12 games and the team has been playing very average so far this season.

After a good start of the season in which the team managed to climb to the seventh place in the ranking ADO Den Haag only collected two points from their last six games and with PSV visiting on Sunday there is not much that will speak to their advantage.

ADO Den Haag will miss the experienced Bosschaert (def) due to a suspension and with Rankovic (mid), Knopper (mid) and Pique (att) sitting out longterm injuries, the team has lost most some of it's strength and fighting spirit with Van den Bergh (mid) not having brought that was expected after coming over from Heracles Almelo.

PSV Eindhoven

PSV is the current runner-up in the ranking with two points separating them from the first place and with FC Twente and Ajax playing each other this weekend, there is a more than fair chance that PSV will top the ranking after the weekend.

The team has played very consistent over the last few weeks, not great, but enough to secure the three points even in poor games. Goalkeeper Isaksson (gk) has proved to be a worthy replacement of Gomes (gk) after a poor start and Isaksson (gk) certainly prevented PSV from losing points multiple times already.

PSV is in good form lately and despite playing not the best of football, the team is very consistent and the individual quality of players like Dzsudzsak (mid), Lazovic (att) and Bakkal (att) have proven to be enough to keep their undefeated record this season.

PSV has beaten ADO Den Haag in their previous seven meetings since 2005 and it will be hard to see past an eight straight victory.

Injuries/suspensions

ADO Den Haag :
Rankovic (mid) (longterm), Waterman (gk) (longterm), Piqué (att) (longterm), Knopper (mid) (longterm), Zwinkels (gk) (longterm), Bosschaert (def) (suspended)

PSV Eindhoven :
Ooijer (def) (knee injury), Kromkamp (def) (knee injury), Koevermans (att) (not fit to play)

THe Betting Verdict

PSV maybe will have the game against FC Copenhagen (Dan) (1-1) in their legs on Sunday. However, this will most likely have little to no effect on the outcome of this game.

PSV simply is a bridge too far for ADO Den Haag and given their good record against ADO Den Haag and the momentum they seem to have going on I can't see past another win for the visitors.

(General) (8/10)

FIXED ODDS BETTING :

Take PSV Eindhoven to win
