Royal Excel Mouscron are welcoming Sint-Truiden for another important game after their 0-2 result against 12th-placed AS Eupen.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

It should be mentioned that Sint-Truiden play their home matches on artifical turf, so they have to adjust for this one as it's played on grass. Does it matter? Recent statistics for Sint-Truiden on grass are 10 victories, 9 draws and 20 defeats from 39 games. In these matches they have a goal statistics scored/conceded: 44-74. You can compare this with overall results below.
