PSV Eindhoven will face Club Brugge at the PSV Campus De Herdgang on Saturday in a pre-season friendly between the two teams. The home side enjoyed a brilliant campaign last season, lifting the Eredivisie title for the first time since the 2017-18 campaign and the 25th time in club history.
They kicked off their pre-season campaign against Anderlecht last weekend, suffering a 3-0 defeat. They had a handful of chances to get on the scoresheet themselves but failed to convert and will hope they can find better luck this time around.
Similarly, Club Brugge secured the Belgian League title last season, with the appointment of caretaker manager Nicky Hayen in March working wonders for the club as they went on to secure their 19th Jupiler Pro League trophy.
