Leuven vs Antwerp Odds
Leuven Team News
-After 20 games played, Leuven is in 14th place in the Belgian Pro League table. This team needs more than five points to get out of the danger zone, and the match in the last round gave them hope that this could happen by the end of the season.
They played at home against Eupen and won 3:0. We saw the first goal very early, already in the second minute. By the end of the first half, it was already 2:0 for the host, and towards the end of the match, Mueanta set the final score: 3:0 for Leuven. Eupen had a good chance to reduce the deficit, but Leuven’s defense was excellent in this game.
Before that, Leuven lost to Gent 4:0. This team was not lucky when they lost to Cercle Brugge 2:1 in the previous match at home. At the beginning of December, Leuven drew with STVV 1:1.
Antwerp Team News
Antwerp lost valuable points in the last three matches because it could not win at all. They are in sixth place in the table, and only one point separates them from relegation from the group that will eventually go to the playoffs for the championship title.
In the last round, Antwerp was defeated away by Genk. During the match, Antwerp footballers could not connect their lines to a stable whole. In the 10th minute, Fadara scored a goal to give Genk the lead. In the second half, Tolu Arokodare scored two goals in two minutes, bringing his team another victory. During the match, Antwerp only tried to cut four times and sent only one ball into the goal frame.
