🗞️ Team News: Antwerp

Björn Engels (Hamstring Injury) and Toby Alderweireld (Muscular problems) will be missing for Antwerp boss Mark van Bommel.

In our view, The Great Old could employ a 4-3-3 formation for this one, beginning the first half with Jean Butez, Ritchie De Laet, Dinis Almeida, William Pacho, Sam Vines, Radja Nainggolan, A. Yusuf Abdullahi, Pieter Gerkens, M. Ange Balikwisha, Michael Frey and Koji Miyoshi.

🗞️ Team News: Oud-Heverlee Leuven

Oud-Heverlee Leuven boss Marc Brys has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Siebe Schrijvers (Achilles tendon surgery) and Mandela Keita (Foot Injury) are not ready for selection.

We believe OHL appear most likely to make use of a 3-5-2 system, giving starts to Valentin Cojocaru, Louis Patris, Ewoud Pletinckx, Dylan Ouedraogo, Musa Al Taamari, Casper De Norre, Kristiyan Malinov, Mathieu Maertens, J. D. Thorsteinsson, Raphael Holzhauser and Nachon Nsingi.

✨ Prediction

It looks to us that Antwerp should really fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding against Oud-Heverlee Leuven, who will not find it easy to break down their defence.

We’re therefore expecting to see a controlled 2-0 win for Antwerp at the end of this one.
