Charleroi

LWDLDW ⚖

Charleroi will be looking for a repeat result of the 1-2 First Division A - Play-Offs triumph against KV Kortrijk.

In that match, Charleroi managed 59% possession and 12 attempts on goal with 5 on target. For Charleroi, goals were scored by Antoine Bernier (54') and Achraf Dari (94'). Kortrijk had 10 shots on goal with 2 on target. Isaak Davies (45') was the scorer for KV Kortrijk.

A recurring characteristic of more recent Charleroi games is the number of nil scores.

Taking their prior 6 clashes leading up to this one, in 5 of them a bet on both teams scoring would have been a losing one. That sort of pattern won’t necessarily be sustained into this match, of course.
