PSV Eindhoven

PSV (officially in Dutch Philips Sport Vereniging, Dutch pronunciation: /ˌfilɪpˌspɔrt fəˈreːnəɣɪŋ/; in Spanish, Asociación Deportiva Philips), popularly known as PSV Eindhoven, is a Dutch multi-sport club from the city of Eindhoven (North Brabant). It was founded on 31 August 1913 for the employees of the electrical appliance company Philips, and is known mainly for its professional football team, which plays in the Eredivisie, the top division of Dutch football.

Two golden eras stand out in its history, around the conquest of the 1977–78 UEFA Cup and the 1987–88 European Cup, the latter as part of the treble it achieved that year. The team has won 27 Dutch league titles, the KNVB Cup eleven times and the Johan Cruijff Schaal fifteen times, which makes it the second team in the country with the most national titles after Ajax, the same position it holds in the all-time Eredivisie table. As of May 2021 it ranks 56th in the UEFA club coefficient ranking.

It plays its home matches at the Philips Stadion, a ground opened in 1913 with a capacity of 35,000 spectators, the third largest in the Netherlands. Red and white are the club's traditional colours, the same as those of Ajax of Amsterdam and Feyenoord, its great rivals in Dutch football, alongside which it is considered one of the "big three" clubs of the country in terms of honours and history.
