Champions League, played Wednesday, January 29th, 2025
Here is our PSV v Liverpool tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to score in this game, over 2.5 goals, and a Liverpool away win. Our confidence in this pick was low relative to other picks.
PSV registered a second win on the trot over the weekend in the Dutch top flight with a 3-2 home win against NAC Breda which followed a previous important victory over Serbian outfit Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League which in turn has helped the upcoming Dutch hosts move up into 19th place in the table.
Liverpool not only sit top of the domestic Premier League but The Reds also hold pole position at the top of the Champions League table as well, and having posted three wins on the trot along with having already qualified for the round of last 16 in this competition, the visitors will be upbeat about their chances here.
Recent results have been a bit of a mixed bag where PSV have been concerned as the Dutch hosts have collected five wins, a draw, but have also slipped to three defeats as well which suggests this upcoming encounter at their Philips Stadion could be far from straightforward for Peter Bosz's side.
On the Champions League front, PSV have won three of their last four ties overall with victories gained over the likes of Girona, Shakhtar Donetsk and Red Star Belgrade, but these have been PSV's only successes in their previous 10 ties overall.
Liverpool bring a five-match unbeaten run in all competitions into this upcoming clash at the Philips Stadion which includes recording four wins and a draw; wins in the Premier League against Brentford and Ipswich Town along with a FA Cup win against Accrington Stanley and a 2-1 home win against Lille last time out in the Champions League will give the visitors plenty of confidence.
The bigger picture shows Liverpool possess a dominant run of results across all competitions as The Reds have been handed just the single loss within their previous 30 games which came in the form of a 1-0 loss at Tottenham, but also includes collecting a staggering total of 24 wins in the process.
Liverpool's dominance in this season's Champions League campaign has also been very evident indeed as the merseyside outfit still possess an excellent 100% winning record to date having won all seven of their ties overall.
These victories include sealing the all-important three points on the road at the likes of AC Milan, RB Leipzig and Girona respectively which have contributed to Liverpool's position at the top of the Champions League table and proves The Reds are a serious force to be reckoned with under the guidance of manager, Arne Slot.
PSV v Liverpool Verdict
PSV know they need to get a result of some sort here on Wednesday night to give themselves a fighting chance of achieving a top 24 finish in the table but Liverpool have held the upper hand in previous exchanges against their Dutch hosts, winning the previous five meetings on the trot.
Therefore, our main bet will be Liverpool win @ 2.30
Other side bets worth considering:
Liverpool win & Over 2 goals @ 2.80
