PSV vs Liverpool Score Prediction

With Liverpool likely to rotate their squad, PSV will have the advantage of playing with their full-strength team. However, the Reds have enough quality to secure a result, especially with their impressive European form. Given both teams’ objectives—a draw benefits both sides—this could be a tight encounter.

Prediction: PSV 1-1 Liverpool
