Prediction: 1-2
PSV
Bloomfield Stadium will host Thursday’s Conference League game between Maccabi Tel Aviv and PSV. The Eredivisie outfit won the first leg (1-0) thanks to Cody Gakpo’s goal, and the bookies see them as favourites to win the return leg as well. PSV are enjoying a very successful season, and seeing that key players are back to contention, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Roger Schmidt’s troops.
To make things even better for the away side, all Ibrahim Sangare, Carlos Vinicius, and Olivier Boscagli are back from suspension. Mladen Krstajic’s men, on the other hand, face an uphill task in the return leg. Maccabi Tel Aviv are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in the second leg, meaning that PSV will have a number of opportunities to score on the break. Defender Shahar Piven should be the only absentee in the home team.
