PSV-Shakhtar: 18 goals in five games weigh heavily

Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo8 September 2026 at 09:59

PSV Eindhoven is going through a very fragile defensive phase in the Champions League, having conceded 18 goals in just five games. This defensive vulnerability has worried fans and analysts of the Dutch team.

Shakhtar Donetsk, on the other hand, presents an inverse record. The Ukrainian team won all three away games, conceding only one goal in those matches. This away performance contrasts strongly with PSV's defensive problems.

The prognosis for the clash between the two teams is scheduled for September 10. The difference in form between the two teams, especially in defense, could be decisive for the match result.
