In the 29th round of the VriendenLoterij Eredivisie, PSV takes on FC Utrecht at home. Peter Bosz 's team might be able to grab the title if they win, but that depends on Feyenoord losing points to FC Volendam the next day.
PSV generally has little trouble with FC Utrecht at home and often manages to get good results in the Philips Stadium against the Domstadelingen. In the previous 54 editions of PSV - FC Utrecht, we won 47 matches, 6 duels ended in a draw and we lost only once. In these matches, PSV had little trouble finding the net. Thus, we scored a total of 160 times and only gave up 28 goals.
Three seasons ago, PSV recorded a big win over FC Utrecht. Guus Til, Anwar El Ghazi and Xavi Simons all scored twice, allowing PSV to beat FC Utrecht 6-1. In 2023, PSV opened the league season with a businesslike 2-0 victory over FC Utrecht and Noa Lang scored his first goal in PSV service. The last time PSV took on FC Utrecht at home, Peter Bosz 's team had a tougher time and the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Possible title
This weekend could just happen. If PSV get a better result this weekend than pursuer Feyenoord, they could become Dutch champions for the third time in a row and 27th time in total. If Peter Bosz 's team takes the title this weekend, it will crown itself the earliest ever national champion and PSV will improve its own record from 1978.
Strong form
FC Utrecht has had a mixed season, but has found its way up again. The Dutchmen have not lost seven matches in a row and currently have the longest unbeaten streak in the league. Furthermore, Ron Jans' team won five of those seven games and thanks to these results are in the race for the playoffs for European football.
