PSV Eindhoven vs PEC Zwolle prediction 23.04.2026 | Eredivisie

PSV did wobble slightly around late February into March. That KNVB Cup loss to NEC, followed by a couple of league defeats, hinted at fatigue or maybe just a dip in focus.

However, Bosz’s side seem to have corrected things quickly. Wins over Utrecht and Sparta Rotterdam suggest they are back on track, even if the defending still looks a bit open at times.

At the Philips Stadium, confidence remains high. Five wins from the last six there tells you enough. Anass Salah-Eddine is still suspended, which is not ideal, but not devastating either. Ivan Perišić has quietly been one of the key figures this season, contributing goals and assists from wide areas.

Injuries are piling up though. Pléa, van Bommel, Olij, Til, Schouten, and Mauro Júnior are all unavailable. That is a long list, and you wonder if it slightly disrupts rhythm.

Zwolle sit nine points above the relegation zone, which sounds comfortable until you look at the fixtures left. One bad run and things tighten quickly.

The Blauwvingers have actually been decent lately, losing just once in seven matches. That kind of form usually builds belief.

Away from home, though, it is a different story for Henry van der Vegt’s side. A heavy 5-0 loss to Go Ahead Eagles still lingers, and nine away games without a win is hard to ignore. That said, Zwolle do carry some attacking threat.

Koen Kostons has been central, with 11 goals and six assists, often stepping up when chances are limited. Support from de Regt and Velanas has been modest rather than consistent.

Injuries to Schendelaar, Lagsir, Monteiro, Shoretire, and Faberski stretch the squad, especially against a side like PSV where depth tends to matter more than usual.
