WAREGEM vs ANTWERP – BETTING PREVIEW
BELGIUM JUPILER LEAGUE
Antwerp won the reverse game 1-0!
With just 4 normal season matches remaining, it’s now or never for Waregem! The hosts are joint 2nd bottom of the table, and 3 points behind 14th (safety) placed Eupen. On a positive note, one of the remaining matches is against the aforementioned relegation contender.
As it stands, Waregem took 24 points from their 30 completed matches. Of those, 13 were taken at the Elindus Arena! It is also worth noting, 66 goals were scored in those 15 matches.
If we go back two games, the 2-6 defeat against Gent cost Mbaye Laye his job. Frederik D’Hollander was appointed caretaker manager before the 2-2 draw in St Liege.
The Essevee are without just two players for today’s match. One of them is long-term injured Madou Tambedou, while the other is Alessandro Ciranni. The wing-back was injured after 9 minutes against Gent, and he’s unlikely to be back this season.
Meanwhile, following a disappointing 0-1 defeat against Charleroi, Antwerp has dropped to an 8-point third in the table. The challenge now is staying in touch with the league leaders before the Championship group begins!
It is fair to suggest, Antwerp boss Mark Van Bommel has been unfortunate with injured players. However, for tonight’s game Toby Alderweireld & Vincent Janssen are back in contention. The former Tottenham defender (Alderweireld) missed the last three games through injury, but is training and should be available! As for Janssen, the team’s top scorer missed the last game against Charleroi!
The Great Old confirmed that Calvin Stengs will miss this game. Also, Van Bommel will be picking his team without Gerkens, Valencia, Miyoshi, and two unused players.
In summary, Antwerp is an excellent traveler, and they are in better shape now than before the break. With two key players back in the team, we expect the visitors to expose a weak defense.
