Royal Antwerp, Recent FormRoyal Antwerp had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against RWD Molenbeek. During that encounter they had 73% possession and had 13 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 1 of their 5 shots on goal.
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 4 at the other end which has led to points being dropped.
Winning 4 and being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 league games at Bosuilstadion, marks a good spell of home form for Royal Antwerp.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Royal Antwerp, Vincent Janssen will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Gent, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-1 home win against Eupen in their latest league match, Gent will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. They came away from that fixture with a 44% share of the possession and clocked up 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Eupen, who managed 18 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Hein Vanhaezebrouck 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 6 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 14 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 7 games.
The Gent travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Gift Orban, who's scored 6 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 2-0 win for Royal Antwerp.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league at Bosuilstadion, De Buffalo's have been unable to break through the Antwerp defence and find the back of the net. Antwerp will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against De Buffalo's, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 8 meetings between the two. Gent have struggled to break down The Great Old defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 1 time in their last 5 meetings.
Antwerp will be looking to continue their winning streak against Gent having won in their last 6 meetings in the league.
Antwerp manager Mark van Bommel has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Kobe Corbanie (Unknown), Björn Engels (Hamstring), Jacob Ondrejka (Unknown), Davino Verhulst (Knee) and Sam Vines (Muscle) 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 Laurent Depoitre (Achilles tendon) missing out, which gives Vanhaezebrouck a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
