Kortrijk form and stats
Kortrijk's struggle is real here at Guldensporenstadion with only 5 points collected from 6 Pro League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-3.
Kortrijk faced defeat in their previous match, away at Club Brugge (0-1). Before that, Kortrijk drew at home versus Beerschot-Wilrijk.
