Waasland-Beveren host Mechelen in the 24th round of Belgium Jupiler League.
Both teams are near the bottom of the table and both need points in order to move up in the safer zone.
Waasland-Beveren stand in the relegation zone and they desperately need point in this match. But, their recent performance is very poor. They are without win in their last 5 league matches (0-1-4).
For this match they will be without few very important players, especially in defence.
The first goalkeeper Coosemans (22/0 gk), Bojović (7/1 d), Vermeulen (7/0 d), Blondelle (19/0 d), D’Ulivo (12/0 d) and their second top scorer Destorme (16/3 f) are all out.
Waasland-Beveren have one of the worst attacks and defences in Jupiler League.
Mechelen is in the better position. They have 5 points more than their opponent and they will be for sure be satisfied with one point, but home team have problems with the injuries and suspensions, so the visitors could take all three points.
Mechelen don’t play at the high level, but they lost only once in their last 5 league matches (1-3-1).
Van Tricht (4/0 m) is the only absence in Mechelen squad, so I’ll be free to write that they have the almost full squad available for this match.
Mechelen could take all three points tonight, but I’ll cover this betting tip with an Asian handicap.
