General match analysis
PSV remain unbeaten after five matchdays, winning 4 and drawing 1, while Sparta Rotterdam have managed just 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats. At home, the hosts average 3.5 goals, create chances worth 2.73 xG and register 22.5 shots per match, clearly outperforming Sparta’s away figures of 2 goals, 1.56 xG and 13 shots. PSV’s superiority should also be evident in their control of the game, with the hosts averaging 69% possession compared with their opponents’ 47%. Sparta can pose a threat, having scored in every away match and recording 5.5 shots on target per game, but their defence allows opponents 1.41 xG. PSV have also failed to keep a clean sheet at home and concede an average of 1.5 goals, yet their significantly higher quality and the volume of chances they create strongly favour a home win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The signal for both teams to score is very strong: PSV recorded BTTS in 67% of matches, while Sparta Rotterdam did so in as many as 100%. Neither team has kept a single clean sheet, conceding an average of 2.0 goals per match for PSV and 1.5 for Sparta. In their last five matches, BTTS landed in 100% of PSV’s fixtures and 80% of Sparta’s, with the teams averaging 3.6 and 1.8 goals respectively. Their attacking potential is supported by identical season xG averages of 1.56, while Sparta has allowed opponents 1.64 xG over its last five matches. In addition, the league has recorded BTTS in 79% of matches, with an average of 4.1 goals, making it more likely that both sides will find the net.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
PSV are in excellent attacking form, averaging 3.6 goals scored over their last 5 matches, supported by a high average xG of 2.52. Sparta have averaged 1.8 goals over the same period, while their matches produced an average of 3.6 goals, as they conceded 1.8 goals per game. Neither team has kept a clean sheet yet, while they have scored in 67% and 100% of their matches respectively, clearly supporting a scenario with at least two goals. The Over 2.5 goals line also has merit, having landed in 100% of PSV’s last five matches and 80% of Sparta’s games; however, Over 1.5 goals is the safest option. Further confirmation comes from the league average of 4.1 goals per match and the fact that 86% of matches featured at least three goals.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
PSV are in considerably better form: they have won 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of 3.6 goals and conceding just 1.2, while Sparta have won 20% of their games and conceded an average of 1.8 goals. The hosts were leading at the break in 4 of their last 5 appearances, averaging 1.6 goals before half-time, whereas Sparta were ahead after 45 minutes in only 20% of matches. PSV’s advantage should be maintained after the interval, as they have scored an average of 2.0 goals in the second half of their last 5 matches while allowing opponents just 0.4. Sparta are dangerous offensively, but their average xG stands at 1.56 against 1.41 xG conceded, while PSV have a clearly superior results profile in their current run, including an impressive 80% win rate. The most likely scenario is therefore PSV leading at half-time and winning the match overall: HT/FT 1/1.
