PSV Champions League composition adjustments tactical surprise injuries

The composition of the PSV team for its first game of Champions League is changing. Coach Peter Bosz has to make significant adjustments to his selection, especially due to several injuries. The opening game will take place at the Philips Stadion at 6:45 p.m. The team will face the absence of Mauro Júnior, Alassané Plea and Kiliann Sildillia, who suffered an injury in the last game against NEC. Armando Obispo, also absent against NEC, is able to play. Matej Kovać will guard the goal in front of a four-player defense.

The defensive composition of the VSP shows significant changes. Although the exact composition of lateral posts is not yet definitive, a surprise is to be expected. Ryan Flamingo could be used as the right back of fortune, while Sergino Dest will evolve to the left. The central defence sector will consist of Armando Obispo and Yarek Gasiorowski. Another possibility is that Dest is the right-back and Gasiorowski the left-back, with Flamingo and Obispo in the center.

The midfielder will be led by Captain Jerdy Schouten, with Joey Veerman and Ismael Saibari at his side. Guus Til, on the other hand, remained on the sidelines and will not be part of the initial composition for this first game of Champions League. In attack, Ricardo Pepi is able to start in point, with Ivan Perišić and Ruben van Bommel for the flank. The team composition for the PSV is as follows: Kovać, Dest, Flamingo, Obispo, Gasiorowski; Schouten, Veerman, Saibari; Perišić, Pepi, Van Bommel. The composition of the opposing team Union Sint-Gillis is not specified in the text.
