Competition: Belgium Pro League
Market: Antwerp win
Odds: 8/15 @ Pribet
Marking their return from November’s international break on Friday night, Antwerp will welcome Dender to the Bosuilstadion.
Starting with the hosts, making an immediate return to winning ways last time out as they clinched a 2-1 win away at Kortrijk, Antwerp have continued on a sensational Pro League romp this season. Firing on all cylinders since opening up the new campaign, Jonas De Roeck’s men find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Marking their return from November’s international break battling it out at the top of the table, the Reds will be confident of laying down another marker here. Sat in the driving seat to punch what would be a famous European ticket this year, the former Westerlo boss has seen his squad gain a string of plaudits from across Belgium’s elite. Signing off October with a stellar 3-0 romp at home against St. Liege, Antwerp are riding a major wave of momentum. In fact, Friday’s hosts have collected 26 points from their first 14 Pro League appearances. It should be noted, the Reds have won all of their last five straight showdowns at the Bosuilstadion.
As for the visitors, while Antwerp might be enjoying a real Pro League purple patch this season, Dender find the mood in their camp at a polar opposite. Despite securing a top flight return for this season, Vincent Euvard’s men have a real battle on their hands in the race to keep hold of their Pro League status. Marking their return from November’s international break holding just a one-point buffer from slipping into the relegation zone, Friday’s guests have failed to win any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Crashing out of the Belgium Cup last month following a 2-1 loss away at Waregem, Dender have also put just a single victory on the board since the end of August. With their recent issues underlined by a 5-2 drumming at home against KV Mechelen on October 26th, the former Leuvern boss should be bracing himself for another stern examination this weekend. Given the huge recent gulf in class, we are backing a home win here.
