- Competition: Champions League
- Date: Wednesday, 27th November 2024
- Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
- Venue: Philips Stadion (Eindhoven)
PSV started the Champions League with only two points in the first three rounds, but after a big 4-0 win in the previous round against Girona, the goal of progressing to the knockout phase became realistic again. In Eredivisie, PSV are looking unstoppable with 36 points from 13 matches. That is eight points more than the second on the table, Utrecht (Utrecht has two games fewer at the moment). PSV are in a run of three wins in a row. In the previous match, they won 5-0 at home against Groningen.
Shakhtar Donetsk, like PSV, started slowly in the most elite UEFA league, but after a 2-1 win against Young Boys in the last round, they came close to the spots that would mean the knockout phase. Shakhtar Donetsk are on an impressive run of five wins in a row. In the previous match, they won 6-0 against Inhulets. The home side dominated the game from the start, so their victory was well-deserved.
PSV vs Shakhtar Donetsk pick: Over 2.5 goals
PSV scored 20 goals in the last five matches. On the other hand, Shakhtar Donetsk scored 13 goals in the previous four games. We should expect at least three goals in the upcoming clash at the Philips Stadion.
PSV team news
PSV have some problems with missing players. Luuk de Jong, Adamo Nagalo, Jerdy Schouten, Fode Fofana, and Joey Veerman are all injured and will not play on Wednesday night. Sergino Dest is currently questionable and his status will be closer to the kickoff.

Shakhtar Donetsk team news
Shakhtar Donetsk will have almost the whole team available for the game against PSV. Tymur Puzankov, the team's fourth goalkeeper, should be the only one who will skip the upcoming tie. We should expect the head coach Marino Pusic to field the best Shakhtar's starting lineup as all important players are available.
