Kortrijk Prediction – Can Kortrijk make most of home advantage?
Having won recent back-to-back matches at home against Sint-Truiden 4-0 and a 2-0 win over Zulte-Waregem, Tuesday night’s hosts, Kortrijk, will be in confident mood of capturing a third home win on the trot when they entertain third from bottom Eupen.
Despite losing 5 of their last 8 matches overall in the Belgian First Division A, Kortrijk have been a far different prospect on home turf at their Guldensporenstadion as the hosts possess a home record which stands at 3-2-1 15/8 and includes victories over Anderlecht, Sint-Truiden and Zulte-Waregem.
With 4 defeats from their 5 matches away from home to date, form at home has therefore been Kortrijk’s saving grace so far this season, and the bigger picture shows us that the hosts have suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 8 matches at home in the First Division A.
That loss was to 3rd placed Mechelen, but 5 wins and 2 draws out of these last 8 matches make Kortrijk a tough unit to break down in their own backyard, and Eupen could find this being a long night.
Eupen Prediction – Can Eupen get anything out of Kortrijk?
Third from bottom club, Eupen, have posted a mixed return of results in recent weeks as the visitors have registered wins against Cercle Brugge and Oostende but have also suffered defeats to Standard Liege 3-0 and a 2-0 loss to Mechelen.
Eupen have registered just 2 wins in the Belgian top flight so far in this campaign but both of these victories were achieved away from their Stadion am Kehrweg with wins collected at the aforementioned Cercle Brugge and Oostende amidst an away record of 2-1-3 6/14.
However, just 4 away wins out of their last 16 matches on their travels indicates that Eupen are by no means guaranteed of a positive result against Kortrijk this evening, and may well come a cropper on Tuesday night as Kortrijk look to make the most of home advantage in order to reduce the points deficit on 6th placed Genk.
With just 2 clean sheets out of their last 16 away matches in the First Division A and only Cercle Brugge and Sint-Truiden possessing worst defensive records on the road in the division, Eupen will have their work cut out to get a result here I fancy.
