SN BET - Match of the Day: PSV - Basel. Central match of the 2 qualification round Champions League.

Hello! So, more serious clubs gradually start to enter the Champions League. And in the second qualifying round, the draw brought two such clubs together. Today in Eindhoven PSV will take Basel in the first match of this confrontation.

For PSV, the meeting with Basel will be the first official match in the new season. Before that, they had four friendly matches. And the results of these matches were different. In the first match with Sion, the Dutch drew 0-0, then there was a fighting match with Nice, in which the French won 3-2. Then there was a victory over the Greek Aris with a score of 3-0 and in the final friendly match PSV lost 2-0 to Wolfsburg. In fairness it should be noted that most of the main players did not play in these matches, mostly they were reserve players or substitute players. But it is possible that many players who entered the field in these matches will take the field today.

In last year's Champions League, PSV kicked off from the fourth round, in which he beat BATE twice (3-2 and 3-0), but the Dutch were not lucky with the draw and in the group stage the club landed in the “group of death” with Inter, Tottenham and Barcelona. The Dutch have earned only two points.

In Switzerland, the weekend passed the first round of the Super League. So Basel is slowly beginning to enter the season, before that Basel had five friendly matches. It is also worth noting that Basel resigned from vacation one month after the end of the championship, while his rival was half a month longer. Also noteworthy is the fact that in almost all friendly matches at Basel, the main players played, which affected the results of friendly matches. At the end of June, Basel beat the first league club of Switzerland - Kriens in the first friendly match with a score of 4-2. Then, four days later, the Bundesliga 2 - Munich 1860 club was beaten with a score of 1-5. Further, in July, in the first match Nürnberg, who left the Bundesliga at the end of the season, was defeated with a score of 4-0, the next opponent was again the opponent from the First League of Switzerland - Lausanne and again there was a victory, 4-1. But in the final friendly match Stuttgart cooled the ardor of the Swiss, beating them 2-3. Which by the way did not prevent Basel from defeating Sion in the first match of the Super League with a score of 1-4.

Basel missed the last eurocup season, losing to Apollo Cyprus in the 4th qualifying round Europa League.

This is the current alignment of forces in this match, if it is difficult to say anything about PSV in this match, then Basel will definitely be ready to offer decent resistance. The Swiss club seems to be the favorite in this match, the only advantage on the PSV side will be the home stadium, but how important it will be today.

Bookmakers see PSV as the favorite of this match and give Basel a factor of 5.9 to win Basel. Very tempting given all the above. In order not to risk, I will take the variant of the victory of Basel (+1) with a coefficient of 1.9. Also can also consider the option in live Individual Basel total more than 1 with 2.7.

Good Luck!
