Overview
- PSV beat SC Cambuur 5-2 at the Kooi Stadion on Sunday to move back to the top of the Eredivisie table.
- Sven Mijnans and Ruben van Bommel scored as PSV moved 3-0 clear before Cambuur briefly pulled back to 3-2 and PSV sealed the win with late goals.
- Manager Peter Bosz used a largely expected side with Matej Kovář in goal and an attack featuring Ivan Perišić, Sven Mijnans and van Bommel.
- PSV managed selection constraints with Ricardo Pepi available after returning from injury and several regulars still out, while Perišić played with a head bandage after a wound suffered in the Club Brugge game.
- Cambuur’s long unbeaten run and strong recent scoring form made them a tough home opponent and PSV’s win follows scrutiny of the team’s defensive transitions exposed in their Champions League defeat.
