Bosz Selects Til Over Pepi for Critical PSV Title Showdown
PSV travel to face FC Utrecht on Saturday in a match that could decide the Vriendenloterij Eredivisie title. Manager Peter Bosz has announced his starting XI for the league leaders.
Team selection
Matej Kovar will start in goal after helping the Czech Republic qualify for the World Cup. Kiliann Sildillia takes the right-back role while Mauro Júnior replaces the suspended Anass Salah-Eddine at left-back. Jerdy Schouten and Yarek Gasiorowski form the centre of defence; Armando Obispo was due to start but injured himself during the warm-up.
Midfield and attack
Joey Veerman is fit enough to start in midfield, with Paul Wanner and Ismael Saibari completing the trio. Dennis Man will operate on the right and Ivan Perisic on the left, while Bosz has selected Guus Til as the central striker after Ricardo Pepi’s proposed move to Fulham collapsed. That decision raises the stakes and adds intrigue to a critical PSV title showdown.
Confirmed line-ups
Both teams have been named for the crucial fixture.
- PSV: Kovar; Sildillia, Schouten, Yarek Gasiorowski, Mauro Júnior; Veerman, Wanner, Saibari; Man, Til, Perisic.
- FC Utrecht: Barkas; El Karouani, Van der Hoorn, Didden, Horemans, Vesterlund; Zechiël, Engwanda; Cathline, Stepanov, Alarcón.
Utrecht will aim to upset PSV and keep the title race alive.
