PSV Eindhoven possible 11:
Benitez, Hoever, Teze, Ramalho, Max, Veerman, Sangare, Bakayoko, Til, Gakpo and De Jong
Prediction: Monaco 2-3 PSV
We expect an entertaining affair here given either side’s inability to keep clean-sheets.
PSV may have won the Super Cup on the weekend but have issues at the back with Yedder and Co will exploit.
The visitors have better form ahead of this visit and are expected to nick this contest due to their attacking quality.
