Dender form and stats

Dender have played three First Amateur Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. It's trouble wherever Dender are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Dender, their manager F. Cieters and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The fans are hoping that Dender will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the First Amateur Division game against Deinze (placed 1st). Preceding that match was a defeat to RFC Seraing (0-1).

The lack of attacking qualities in Dender means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. 3 goals have been conceded.

Thes Sport form and stats

Thes Sport, who have the most points (7) away in First Amateur Division, are happy with their away performances in the First Amateur Division so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. Thes Sport hope to make it five in this match. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Thes Sport are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

The supporters enjoyed Thes Sport's previous game versus Patro Eisden (placed 11th), a First Amateur Division 2-1 win played at home. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Olympic Charleroi.
