Americans Abroad Weekend Preview: Tillman, Pepi, and more

PSV rolled to an Eredivisie title last season and will face its toughest competitor in the opening match of the new Dutch schedule on Sunday.

Malik Tillman, Ricardo Pepi and PSV face off with Feyenoord in the Dutch Super Cup, kicking off the competitive schedule for both teams. Tillman made a permanent move to Peter Bosz’s squad this summer after impressing while on loan in Eindhoven last season. The attacking midfielder scored nine goals and registered 15 assists in all competitions, helping PSV return as league champions.

Pepi mainly as a bench option last season, but still contributed nine goals in 41 combined appearances. The former FC Dallas homegrown will fight with Luuk De Jong for minutes this season and after registering a hat trick last week in a friendly victory, confidence will be high for Pepi.

In Europe, Rokas Pukstas and Hajduk Split continue Conference League Qualifying.

In Denmark, Jonathan Amon and Christian Cappis go head-to-head.

In Scotland, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Celtic begin their title defense in the Scottish Premiership.
