Kortrijk, Recent FormThe Kortrijk squad will be looking to reset their fortunes after their heavy 3-0 away defeat at the hands of Cercle Brugge. During that encounter they had 39% possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 13 of their 24 shots on goal.
Manager Joseph Akpala will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 2 goals, conceded 16, and picked up a meagre 1 points. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 18 of their 19 games played.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at Guldensporenstadion, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins.
Gent, Recent FormIn their last match Gent enforced their superiority over Oud-Heverlee Leuven with a 4-0 home win. They came away from that fixture with a 68% share of the possession and clocked up 21 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Oud-Heverlee Leuven, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 6 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Gent will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Tarik Tissoudali will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Gent.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 3-2 win for Gent.
Kortrijk have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 4 league meetings with De Buffalo's.
Gent has won the last 3 games they've played against Kortrijk in the league.
Hugo Cuypers has scored in each of Gent's last league game against Kortrijk.
Kortrijk manager Joseph Akpala has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Ryan Alebiosu (Unknown), Thierry Ambrose (Achilles tendon) and Youssef Challouk (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Gent manager Hein Vanhaezebrouck ahead of this clash, with Paul Nardi (Broken ankle) missing out, which gives Vanhaezebrouck a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
