Season ticket holders at GHELAMCO-arena haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Gent languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting OH Leuven will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
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.
Gent form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Gent's two home games in the Pro League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at GHELAMCO-arena.
Gent are returning here after visiting Royal Excel Mouscron in a Pro League game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. N. Dorsch scored the goal(s). Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Rapid Wien.
Gent are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found eleven matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won ten, drew one and lost zero.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Gent at home in the league. 2 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
OH Leuven form and stats
OH Leuven are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Pro League, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).
It might be tough going out on the road again for Leuven, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-3 versus KV Oostende (placed 8th). That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Standard Liege.
The travelling fans enjoy Leuven's attacking play in away games, having scored 5 goals in 3 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as OH Leuven have conceded 5 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
