Fortuna Sittard will host PSV Eindhoven at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 Eredivisie campaign. The home side enjoyed a strong start to their season but have quickly run out of steam and now find themselves 11th in the league table with six points from an obtainable 15.
They were thrashed 5-0 by a rampant Ajax side in their last match, finding themselves two goals down before a red card to Rodrigo Guth just before the interval all but scuppered their chances of a meaningful result on the road.
Meanwhile, PSV Eindhoven have performed brightly in the league so far and are well on course for a successful title defense. They coasted to a 2-0 victory over NEC Nijmegen in their last match, with Luuk de Jong and Gus Til getting on the scoresheet in the first half to help clinch a comfortable three points for the Boeren.
The visitors sit atop the league table with 15 points from five matches and will be looking to continue their winning streak in the Eredivisie this weekend.
