PSV welcome Girona on Champions League Matchday Four on Tuesday.

The Dutch giants are one of nine teams yet to taste victory in the Champions League in the new campaign, while Girona have picked up one win so far.

Match Preview

PSV Recent Form

PSV have drawn two against Sporting CP and Paris Saint-Germain and lost one versus Juventus in the Champions League.

Domestically, they have largely been sensational as they won all of their first 10 matches, but things came crashing down at the weekend as they lost 3-2 against rivals Ajax.

PSV Injury News

PSV have had to contend with a bit of a midfield crisis recently as starters Jerdy Schouten and Joey Veerman are currently both out, while Hirving Lozano and Sergino Dest are also missing.

Last PSV Lineup

Here's how PSV lined up against Ajax.

Girona Recent Form

Girona have been unable to replicate the form that saw them qualify for the Champions League last season as they are currently down in 11th in La Liga.

They've won two matches in a row versus Extremadura in the Copa del Rey and Leganes in the league.

In the Champions League, they beat Slovan Bratislava last time out but lost their first two against PSG and Feyenoord.

Girona Injury News

Girona are dealing with a laundry list of injuries as Cristian Portu, Viktor Tsygankov, Yaser Asprilla, Jhon Solis, Abel Ruiz, Ivan Martin and Paul Lopez are definitely out, while Alejandro Frances and Arnaut Danjuma are major doubts.
