Leader Feyenoord can further outrun the competition in the Eredivisie on Sunday. The team from Rotterdam will receive PSV at 2.30 pm, which is in third place with a deficit of 4 points. Feyenoord saw number 2 AZ lose points at FC Volendam (1-1) on Saturday.
The team of trainer Arne Slot does not have access to Justin Bijlow. The goalkeeper suffered a fracture in his wrist during training and has been out for a long time. The German Timon Wellenreuther is normally his replacement. Midfielder Sebastian Szymanski is also missing due to an injury. Slot said at a press conference on Friday that Quinten Timber will start in his place.
PSV has to do without the suspended Mauro Júnior. It is possible that coach Ruud van Nistelrooij will allow newcomer Patrick van Aanholt to make his debut as a left back immediately. The Belgian midfielder Thorgan Hazard, who, like Van Aanholt, is on a rental basis, can also participate in part of the match.
Feyenoord lost this season’s away match against PSV 4-3. That is the only defeat in the competition for the list leader for the time being.
