Prediction: 3-0
Emmen
Following an unlucky 2-2 draw with Feyenoord in the Eredivisie derby, PSV will look to return to winning ways when they face Emmen in the KNVB Beker last 16. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s troops defeated both Vitesse and Go Ahead Eagles in the last two home fixtures, and they are seen as hot favourites to beat Emmen at their Philips Stadion. Both El Ghazi and Mwene limped off with injuries at the weekend, with Bakayoko and van Aanholt likely to step up.
January signing Thorgan Hazard is pushing for a start as well. Meanwhile, Dick Lukkien’s troops have been struggling on the travels this term, and we do not believe that they are capable of shocking PSV in Eindhoven. In their last meeting in the Eredivisie Emmen defeated PSV 1-0, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge. All Hardeveld, Kieftenbeld, Mendes, ZIvkovic, Antonisse, and Darfalou should miss out through injuries.
