In that match, KVC Westerlo had 53% possession and 21 attempts on goal with 3 on target. At the other end, Standard Liege had 7 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target.

Their most recent results highlight the fact that much respect should be given to the KVC Westerlo rearguard.

Let’s see if that trend will end up being sustained in this game.

Charleroi

LLLDLL ⚠

Following on from tasting defeat last time out to SV Zulte Waregem in First Division A competition, Charleroi and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

In that match, Charleroi had 63% possession and 12 shots at goal with 4 on target. Zulte Waregem got 10 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. Jeppe Erenbjerg (41') scored for SV Zulte Waregem.

The stats don’t lie, and Charleroi have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 12 goals in all. In defence, Charleroi can certainly do much better.

ℹ️ Team News: KVC Westerlo

Allahyar Sayyadmanesh (minor knock), Enis Destan (Knee injury), Eliot Bujupi (Knee injury) and Dylan Ourega (Muscle injury) won’t be able to feature for KVC Westerlo manager Issame Charaï.

We are thinking that De Kempeneers will possibly opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game, utilising Andreas Jungdal, Bryan Reynolds, Emin Bayram, Roman Neustädter, Amando Lapage, Dogucan Haspolat, Arthur Piedfort, Shunsuke Saito, Isa Sakamoto, Josimar Alcócer and Nacho Ferri.

📋 Team News: Charleroi

Owing to an otherwise full-strength squad, there’s just the lone fitness problem for the Charleroi boss Hans Cornelis to be concerned with. Massamba Sow (unknown injury) won’t be in action.

We’re of the thinking that Les Zèbres appear most likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation, going with Mohamed Koné, Lewin Blum, Aiham Ousou, Cheick Keita, Jules Gaudin, Yacine Titraoui, Etienne Camara, Patrick Pflucke, J. Napoleon Romsaas, Antoine Bernier and Aurélien Scheidler.

⚡ Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Charleroi and KVC Westerlo could well cancel each other out, with goals at a real premium.

Let’s see what happens, but it could well be that we end up with scores level and two clean sheets. We’re therefore seeing a very close game with a 0-0 draw at the end of this one.
