High-flying PSV will look to extend their excellent goal-scoring run when Shakhtar Donetsk arrive for their Champions League encounter. The Dutch champions head into the clash on the back of an impressive 3-1 victory over Ajax and have been remarkably productive despite losing Ismael Saibari and Joey Veerman over the summer. PSV have scored a remarkable 3.20 goals per game across their last 10 matches, with their home games averaging 5.14 goals. Ouaissa, Plea and Schouten are injured, but the hosts have enough depth to cope with their absences.
Shakhtar, meanwhile, secured a 2-1 victory over Karpaty Lviv at the weekend, although they have not looked quite as sharp as PSV in recent weeks. The Ukrainian side have still won 70% of their last 10 matches and boast a respectable 2.10 goals-per-game average. Their away record is particularly encouraging, with an 83% win rate and only 0.83 goals conceded per match. There are no fresh injury concerns for the visitors.
As PSV have won 70% of their last 10 matches and are scoring 3.20 goals per game, Home Win is our main betting tip for this matchup, alongside PSV Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (PSV matches average a huge 5.00 goals across their last 10).
This Champions League match will be played on Thursday 10 September 2026 at 17:45.
