Ibrahim Afellay and Otman Bakkal return to the PSV starting line-up for the crucial league game against Ajax. Afellay resumed training with the squad on Saturday, after he had picked up a knock to his ankle in PSV's midweek Cup defeat at AZ. Bakkal makes his first start since the Champions League game away against Marseille.
Jérémie Bréchet
Eric Addo and Jérémie Bréchet also return to the squad, but will have to make do with a place on the bench. The Frenchman made his last appearance for PSV on 25 October when they hosted Roda JC. The defender was taken off after 39 minutes with an injury but may make his comeback today. Nordin Amrabat sustained an injury during the same Eredivisie game. The 21-year-old is on the way back, but this afternoon's game comes too early for the forward.
PSV line-up:
Isaksson, Salcido, Maza, Simons, Méndez, Koevermans, Pieters, Afellay, Marcellis, Bakkal and Wuytens.
Substitutions: Cássio Ramos, Lazovic, Bréchet, Culina, Nijland, Addo and Dzsudzsák.
