- Merelbeke have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Westhoek have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
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.
