Kortrijk, Recent FormThe Kortrijk squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Sint-Truiden, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 40%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Sint-Truiden, who had 15 shots on goal with 2 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 5 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have been unable to score at home in 4 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 21 of their 25 games overall.
They've had a terrible run of form at Guldensporenstadion recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Union Saint-Gilloise, Recent FormUnion Saint-Gilloise manager Alexander Blessin will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Westerlo. They came away from that fixture with a 56% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Westerlo, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Blessin will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 8 goals conceded in the same period. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, overall they've scored in 23 of their 25 games this season.
Their impressive run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 19 games in a row.
Away from home in the league, Mohamed Amoura has given the Union Saint-Gilloise travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 5 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
A defeat for Kortrijk in their last match against Union Saint-Gilloise was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
Goals should be on the cards for Les Unionistes in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Kortrijk in their last 5 meetings together. When it comes to breaching the opposition defence, Union know how to do it against De Kerels, having clocked up 14 goals against them in their previous 5 meetings.
Union will be looking to continue their winning streak against Kortrijk, having won each of the last 5 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 5 meetings.
Union Saint-Gilloise 0 - 1 KortrijkKortrijk manager Freyr Alexandersson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Thierry Ambrose (Achilles tendon), Lynnt Audoor (Unknown), Youssef Challouk (Knee) and Marco Kana (Groin) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Fedde Leysen (Unknown) and Kevin Rodríguez (Unknown) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Alexander Blessin will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
