Pre-match preview

PSV

Mauro Júnior will miss PSV's Champions League opener against Shakhtar Donetsk. His suspension ends a run of five straight starts at left-back, with Filip Kostić pencilled in as his replacement.

There has been rotation on the other side of defence too. Sergiño Dest has been PSV's outstanding performer these past weeks and started ahead of Ivan Perišić at right-back in recent matches. Lutsharel Geertruida made an impressive first start at centre-back against Ajax, with Ryan Flamingo - a regular before that game - limited to seventeen minutes off the bench last time out.

Further forward, Ricardo Pepi scored three goals in his last five starts, while Guus Til contributed two goals of his own in that period. Dennis Man, meanwhile, is nearing a return from injury, and Bosz still has a fitness call to make on Luuk de Jong and Noa Lang before kick-off.
