Zulte-Waregem form and stats

Zulte-Waregem, who have the most conceded goals (11) at home in Pro League, have collected 3 points from their Pro League home games so far after 1-0-3. The Zulte-Waregem manager F. Dury might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

In their previous game, the manager F. Dury led his Zulte-Waregem to a defeat in the Pro League match away at OH Leuven. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Regenboogstadion. Before that, Zulte-Waregem played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Standard Liege.

The Zulte-Waregem fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Zulte-Waregem having conceded 11 goals here at Regenboogstadion so far.
