Almere City welcome PSV Eindhoven to Yanmar Stadion for an Eredivisie matchday three fixture on Saturday (August 24). The hosts are coming off a 3-0 defeat at Fortuna Sittard. Alen Halilovic, Kristoffer Peterson and Josip Mitrovic scored to help Fortuna claim maximum points.
PSV, meanwhile, claimed a 3-1 comeback win at Heracles last weekend. They were behind at the break, courtesy of Brian De Keersmaecker's fifth-minute strike. Ivan Mesik's 51st-minute own goal drew the game level before Johan Bakayoko and Couhaib Driouech scored to secure the win.
The victory left the Eindhoven outfit joint-top of the standings with maximum points from two games. Almere, meanwhile, are 15th and are one of five sides yet to pick up a point after two outings.
