The glass has been half empty for Knokke so far, and you could say the same about Mandel United. These hardened teams would trade their mothers for some important points here.
- Knokke have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
- Mandel United have the most dropped points from leading position (7) in First Amateur Division
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Knokke form and stats
Knokke have played three First Amateur Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
Knokke are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Tienen.
Before that game, the home loss against La Louvière Centre with the scoreline 0-1.Knokke has scored 3 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. Knokke have conceded 5 from these games.
Mandel United form and stats
Things could have gone better for Mandel United in their First Amateur Division away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right. It's a growing despair in Mandel as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
Mandel have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 319 minutes ago. R. Ferber was the goal scorer.
The manager R. Verkempinck was unhappy after their last game, a First Amateur Division match played at their home ground. Mandel suffered a 0-1 loss to Liège (placed 1st).
Preceding that game, the 0-4 loss visiting Heist's place.The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Mandel's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.
