All but one of PSV last five outings featured over 2,5 goals, while just a single game witnessed goals at both ends, as the Eindhoven giants kept clean sheets in the other four. The side led by Marc Van Bommel have lost just one of their previous nineteen home encounters, after going 0:2 down to Wolfsburg in a friendly.
