Haugesund vs PSV Eindhoven
FK Haugesund will continue their struggle to appear in the Europa League by facing PSV Eindhoven in the third round of the play offs. This match will also be the second inaugural party in history.
The host gets to this phase through the obstacles of Cliftonville FC and Sturm Graz, with aggregate 6-1 and 3-2 respectively. They also have enough time to prepare for tomorrow’s match after a 1-1 draw at home to Stabaek on Sunday (4/8) then in the Norwegian League.
The opportunity to play as a host will be put to good use after beating Cliftonville and Sturm Graz with a score of 5-1 and 2-0. This is a very good capital before entertaining PSV Eindhoven who already have a lot of experience in European competition.
Yes, coach Mark van Bommel will try to save the face of PSV Eindhoven by taking the UEL ticket. This is the last chance to appear in Europe after the fall of the UCL qualification phase against FC Basel. They did start the campaign badly this season after losing to Ajax in the Dutch Super Cup, FC Basel in the second leg, then drew with Twente in the opening game of the Eredivisie.
In other words, PSV Eindhoven will try to get up at the visit tomorrow. Their experience in the European contest will be a major factor to stem the attacks of the hosts who have scored 12 goals in just the last 3 matches there. Possible draw will close this match.
