Waasland-Beveren form and stats

Waasland-Beveren's results here at Freethielstadion in the Pro League have been very modest with 2 victories, 1 draw and 9 defeats. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. It's been an uphill battle for Waasland-Beveren in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the Royal Excel Mouscron game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.

Waasland-Beveren's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Club Brugge (placed 1st). Preceding that match was the home Belgian Cup game against KV Oostende that was lost 2-3.

Nordin Jackers had a busy but productive day in the Club Brugge match. Despite making eight saves the loss could not be prevented.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Sporting Charleroi are coming to town in three days.

Waasland-Beveren has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 12 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Waasland-Beveren with 29 goals conceded in these matches.

AS Eupen form and stats

3-7-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for AS Eupen in their Pro League matches away.

Impressive finishing from M. Koch, R. Bushiri, A. Baby, M. Koné and G. Magnée secured the home win 5-1 against Olympic Charleroi in their previous game. Ahead of that match was the Pro League away draw versus Gent that ended 2-2.

As mentioned above, AS Eupen was the only team on the pitch versus Olympic Charleroi in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.

After this away game Eupen return home for a Pro League game against KV Oostende. That game is only three sleeps after this.
