- Venue: Philips Stadion (Eindhoven)
PSV and Girona haven't accumulated many points in the Champions League so far, but both teams are hoping to finish among the best 24 teams and progress to the knockout phase. Both sides will see the upcoming tie at the Philips Stadion as a good opportunity for points.
PSV had a tough schedule in the Champions League, so two points from the first three rounds are not as bad as they sound. On the other hand, PSV dominated Eredivisie until Saturday, when they suffered the first defeat of the season (3-2 loss on the road against Ajax). PSV came to Johan Cruijff Arena with ten straight league wins, but the home side outplayed Peter Bosz's team and left guests empty-handed.
Girona are not even nearly as good as last season. In the Champions League, they won three points, while in La Liga, the team from Catalonia is currently only a mid-table team. However, Girona are slightly better lately, with three wins in the last two matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they won 4-3 at home against Leganes.
PSV vs Girona pick: PSV to win
PSV are brilliant at the home stadium, having won five matches in the last six at the Philips Stadium. On the other hand, Girona's only win in the previous five road games was in the cup against Tercera RFEF side Extremadura. We should expect PSV to win on Tuesday evening in Eindhoven.
PSV team news
PSV have problems with missing players. They will be without injured Sergino Dest, Hirving Lozano, Adamo Nagalo, Jerdy Schouten, and Joey Veerman. Also, Ivan Perisic is not registered for the Champions League, so he will skip the tie against Girona as well.

Girona team news
It is hard to imagine a longer injury list than Girona's. Justin Garcia, Yaser Asprilla, Portu, Alejandro Frances, Ricard Artero, Arnaut Danjuma, and Gabriel Misehouy are all out. Also, Abel Ruiz, Ivan Martin, Pau Lopez, Jhon Solis, Oriol Romeu, and Viktor Tsygankov are questionable to play, and their status will be clearer closer to the kickoff.
