Eredivisie
In the previous season, these teams met three times - twice in the league and once in the cup. Last season, PSV won all three games with a combined goal difference of 9:1. Looking further back, over the past ten h2h games, PSV won eight times, while Heerenveen won once.
When it comes to the number of goals, six out of the ten h2h games ended with three or more goals, while both teams scored in the same number of games (six).
PSV Eindhoven team overview
PSV came into this season after a dominant campaign in which they won the title and left 2nd-placed Feyenoord 19 points behind. This season, despite a massive 4:0 in the Super Cup against AZ Alkmaar, PSV did pretty well. They sit in 3rd place with 16 points, three points behind the top spot. However, after a 3:2 loss to Twente in the last game, there are definitely some concerns about their defense.
The team is having massive injury problems. The newest name on the injury list is Paul Wanner, a midfielder who suffered an injury while playing for the Austrian national team. Moreover, seven more players who missed the previous games should also remain sidelined, including some really important players like Lutsharel Geertruida, Jerdy Schouten, and Ricardo Pepi.

Heerenveen team overview
Last season, Heerenveen finished 8th and eventually got knocked out of the Conference League Playoffs. This year, they are once again around their usual place, having won nine points in seven rounds, and are sitting in 10th place. Even though it is still super early, they are looking like they are simply not good enough to have a significant jump compared to last season.
As for injuries, the players who played in international football returned without any. There were reports that goalkeeper Bernt Klaverboer suffered an injury, but the latest report suggests that he trained with the team in recent days. However, Dirk Proper, Mats Egbring, and Mees Hilgers should remain sidelined with their injuries.

Prediction
PSV won five out of seven Eredivisie rounds, while covering the -1.5 AH spread in four of those matches. They have easily beaten teams like Ajax and Utrecht and should do well at home against anyone, considering they are undefeated there this season.
Meanwhile, Heerenveen were inconsistent this season and have already won seven points fewer than PSV in the first seven rounds. To be fair, they have been pretty good away from home, but they almost always struggle against PSV in H2H games. Against PSV, they lost all three h2h games last season, losing by 2+ goals in two of those three matches.
Considering all the above, we believe that PSV is simply a better team and should comfortably win at Philips Stadion.
3 Reasons why PSV should win and cover the -1.5 AH spread
- PSV won five out of seven Eredivisie rounds
- PSV won all three h2h games last season
- PSV won seven more points than Heerenveen thus far
