The Belgian Jupiler League is generally one of the most high-scoring leagues in Europe, where offensive dominance over defense is evident. Speaking about the teams themselves, Antwerp has an average of 3.5 goals per game, and when playing at home, it reaches even 3.7 goals. Meanwhile, Gent shows a statistic of 3.3 goals per game, and away it reaches 3 goals. Moving on to the positions in the standings, the teams are at the top (6th and 2nd places). This allows us to expect a fierce battle just for the victory, as the differences between the teams in the standings are very small, and every point can make a big difference.
Antwerp will enter this match showing quite good form. The last match against Club Brugge was won, and playing at home, they have won 4 out of the last 5 matches and currently lead Waregem, who are also fighting for a place in Europe, by only two points. The team will be without Matheus, Defour, and Quierynen today, so this should not cause major problems in setting up the lineup. Speaking about Gent, after the international break, the team is also showing very good form, winning two matches domestically and defeating Wolfsburg in Europe. Gent is now only 5 points behind the leaders Brugge. There are no losses in the guest ranks for this match, so they will be able to rely on a full lineup.
So, today Antwerp against Gent. Although Antwerp shows impressive form when playing at home, it will be very difficult to fight against Gent today, and to earn points, they will have to rely on offense and try to “outscore” the opponents, so the over on goals looks very attractive here. Good luck and enjoy the match.
