PSV predicted XI v Brest: Johan Bakayoko and Noa Lang to start

PSV Eindhoven, currently top of the Eredivisie, are currently sat 18th in the UEFA Champions League table with eight points. In order to ensure their qualification for the next round, there is still work to do for Peter Bosz’s side, starting against Stade Brestois on Tuesday night.

For the encounter, the Dutch side are without Sergiño Dest and Ivan Perisic. The former is injured, whilst the latter has not been registered in PSV’s Champions League squad. In Dest’s absence, Rick Karsdorp is expected to start against Brest. Given the presence of Johan Bakayoko on one wing and of Noa Lang on the other, Perisic would likely not have started regardless.

Former OGC Nice goalkeeper Walter Benítez will start, as will Monaco-born centre-back Olivier Boscagli.
