21:00
Prediction: 4-1
Sturm Graz
PSV will look to climb to top two in the Group B when they welcome Sturm Graz to their Phillips Stadion in the Europa League round 5. The Dutch side are in a three-horse race with Ajax and Feyenoord in the Eredivisie, with the team sitting in third place in the Europa League Group B. The Red and Whites faced no difficulties in a 2-0 win over Vitesse at the weekend, and given their impressive home record, we are positive that they will pick up all three points from Thursday’s clash.
Keep in mind, though, that all Zahavi, Max, Gakpo, and Madueke are likely to miss the Europa League match through different reasons. Sturm, on the other hand, do not seem to be competitive at this level, and seeing that they have collected only one point in the process, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. As for the visiting team, all Mwepu, Hierlander, Ingolitsch, and Kiteishvili have been struggling with injuries of late.
