Prediction: 1-3
PSV
Emmen and PSV face each other in the David-vs-Goliath clash at De Oude Meerdijk on Matchday 19. Emmen have been struggling in the 2020/21 Eredivisie campaign, with the team still eyeing their first win of the process. The rock bottom side did well to hold Den Haag to a goalless draw at the weekend, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against PSV. It has to be noted that Dick Lukkien’s troops are on a four-match losing run at home ground.
The Red and Whites, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over RKC. PSV are eyeing their third consecutive win in the Dutch top flight, and they are surely capable of beating the relegation strugglers behind closed doors. The likes of Gakpo, Gotze, Ledezma, and Romero are all sidelined with injuries, while Max has been tested positive for coronavirus. Carty should be the only absentee in the home team.
Highlighted Player (Anco Jansen):
Born in Zwolle, Netherlands on March 9, 1989, Anco Jansen is a pacey winger who started his senior career in his home-town club FC Zwolle. After scoring two goals in 40 league appearances for the club, he joined Groningen in 2008, but he did not see any game action with the Green and White Army in the Eredivisie.
Anco Jansen played for the likes of Cambuur, SC Veendam, De Graafschap, Roda JC, and Boluspor as well before joining FC Emmen in 2017. Anco Jansen made his Eredivisie debut with FC Emmen in a 2-1 win over ADO Den Haag on August 12, 2018, with the winger finding the net after 42 minutes.
His main position is left winger, but he is used as both centre-forward and attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right. Anco Jansen has yet to earn a call-up with the Netherlands national football team.
Highlighted Team (PSV):
Based in Eindhoven, Netherlands, PSV is a professional football club competing the top flight of the Dutch football, Eredivisie. PSV play their home games at the Phillips Stadium which can accommodate 35,000 people.
