Season ticket holders at Het Kuipje haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Westerlo languishing in the 7th position so far. The guesting RWDM will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Westerlo form and stats
Westerlo have less points than they have played home games in the First Division B so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 1 point.
Westerlo faced defeat in their previous match, away at RWDM (1-3). Ahead of that match, Westerlo lost 1-4 at home to Union Saint-Gilloise.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Westerlo have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won three times, drawn one and lost one.
At Het Kuipje, Westerlo has the goal stats of 1-4 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
RWDM form and stats
RWDM are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the First Division B, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses).
RWDM are travelling after their nice 3-1 home win in the First Division B against Westerlo (placed 7th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Club Brugge II with the score of 2-0.
RWDM are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and one defeat. From a total of two matches.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far RWDM have scored 4 goals in 3 league games away. In the opposite end, RWDM have conceded 5 goals in their away games.
