PSV vs Telstar Preview

• Competition: Eredivisie
• Date: 30th August
• Kick-off Time: 6:00 PM GMT
• Venue: Philips Stadium

The PSV vs Telstar game is a very important one from the point of view of both teams. The match will be played at the iconic Philips Stadium, the hunting ground of PSV, on 30th August 2025. On one hand, PSV sits in the second position in the table, having won all three Eredivisie games so far. Their attack has been their most impactful department, which has yielded 12 goals so far, including a delightful 6-1 victory in their opening game against Sparta Rotterdam. Manager Peter Bosz will be hopeful his team continues the same form coming Saturday against Telstar, as the Boeren aim to defend their title this time! Ajax are one of the most famous Dutch football teams. Telstar, managed by Anthony Correia, are struggling in the top flight. Last season, they won the promotion play-offs after ending seventh in the Eerste Divisie. Now with just one point in three games, with two losses, they will be eyeing a win against heavyweights PSV. Although fans may believe PSV will be the favourites heading into the fixture, Telstar would be keen to cause an upset early on in the competition. They are currently languishing in 16th place, and in order to escalate their position, they need a major change in their game. Correia would be hopeful that his team gives their best on the pitch on Saturday and causes a major upset for PSV.

PSV vs Telstar Head-to-Head Record

Key players to watch in PSV vs Telstar

Ivan Perisic (PSV)

At 36, there is no stopping Ivan Perisic. The winger is the driving force for PSV and has already recorded one goal and three assists in three Eredivisie games. Marauding the right wing, usually, Perisic was also deployed as a centre forward against Groningen by Bosz. He is expected to feature in that same position against Telstar as well, considering Alassane Plea's injury. The Telstar defenders need to keep a close watch on him, as he can be the game-changer for the Dutch heavyweights.

Soufiane Hetli (Telstar)

Deployed as an attacking midfielder against AFC Ajax and FC Zwolle, Hetli didn't yield much fruit. But with a shift to the centre forward position against FC Volendam, the 24-year-old salvaged a goal, which was instrumental in helping his team bail out a point from the fixture. Correia would be reliant on him for goals, and Hetli will face a tough challenge, especially against PSV. But his partnership with Brouwer is expected to cause problems for Bosz's side, and they should not take him lightly.

PSV vs Telstar Prediction

Considering the past encounters and the current form of both teams, it is expected that PSV might emerge victorious in this clash. However, Telstar should not be written off, as it is sometimes the underdogs who steal the show.

Predicted Score: PSV 3-1 Telstar
