OH Leuven form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Pro League game of the season here at King Power at Den Dreef Stadion. Last season these fans witnessed 7 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses from OH Leuven's 17 home games.

In their previous game, the manager Brys led his OH Leuven to a defeat away at Union Saint-Gilloise. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at King Power at Den Dreef Stadion. Leuven were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Preceding that match was the home game against RWDM that was lost 1-2.

Early season league goal statistics from OH Leuven's 1 home game: {1 goals}, 2 conceded.

Antwerp form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Pro League ended in defeat. Last season Antwerp had these away match statistics: Played 3; won 1, drew 1 and lost 1.

Antwerp are travelling after their nice 6-0 home win in the fixture against Kortrijk (placed 16th). As mentioned above, Antwerp was the only team on the pitch versus Kortrijk in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task. Janssen certainly enjoyed Antwerp's last game versus Kortrijk, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 6-0 victory.

Prior to that match, the Antwerp manager van Bommel faced defeat when travelling to Anderlecht and losing 0-1.

A quick return to home after this game, as Antwerp are hosting TBC in the Champions League only four days away.

Antwerp have the goal stats of 0-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
