The previous weekend, the Red and Whites played their first official match of the 2023-24 season. PSV traveled to Rotterdam to De Kuip Stadium and faced Feyenoord for the Dutch Super Cup. The team held back their opponents' attacks and coped with the pressure from the stands. In the final period, the only goal was scored. It was Lang's accurate shot that brought PSV victory. In the pre-season, the club played five friendlies, winning four matches and one defeat.
Sturm
Sturm has three official meetings in the new campaign. First, the club beat SAK Klagenfurt 7:2 and advanced to the Austrian Cup round of 32. In the championship, the first opponent was Austria - a confident away victory 3:0. Then the team played the first home game and again pleased the fans - a 2:0 victory over LASK. Apart from Sturm, only Salzburg achieved two wins at the start of the Austrian Bundesliga campaign.
Expert Betting Tips
The unconditional favorite of the upcoming confrontation is considered the team led by Peter Bosz. To be fair, PSV players were not surprised by their form in the game with Feyenoord. Even before the goal, the Reds and Whites were more likely to operate in the second number. Sturm players have more game practice at the start of the new season, which may impact the outcome of the next meeting. We believe the guests can score at least one goal on the opponent's field.
