Charleroi vs Gent Prediction & Betting tips
Friday evening, Sporting Charleroi and KAA Gent will open thirteen in the Belgian league. A firm move for the Buffalo sacking down at nine to the Stade du Pays. Can they also take the three points from Charleroi?
Charleroi :
At the moment of writing, Charleroi is ranked second in the ranking. STVV may have jumped over there if they have won Mouscron. It shows that Charleroi knows a dip in their shape because they were firmly in second place just behind Club Brugge. With a five to fifteen it is also not surprising that the rest is getting closer.
Especially the last three games may be worrying. After matches against Lokeren and Eupen, two teams that qualitatively suit less than Charleroi, drove it towards red lantern Oostende. Always hard to play against the last one in the league, certainly if you saw that KV Oostende could get back to the level. The match started very similar but the first best chance for Ostend was price. A deviated shot from Brecht Capon ended the shot in goal. Afterwards, a somewhat similar game image, Oostende became more dangerous at every goal. In the second half, Capon managed to score his second and even third goal, leaving a solid 3-0 on the board at the end.
Time to put something straight. That seems to be the case, and that is also the motivation that Felize Mazzu coach gives his players. The game level has not fallen so much, but the points are subordinate. Something too little is created and too stupid goals are slapped. “It’s all about sharpness so we need to do that.”
Gent :
Since Yves Vanderhaeghe has taken over, it seems that KAA Gent has the happiness on his side. Without the game image changing, it is now working out the odds and swallows almost opposing points. Especially the defensive organization is at the point where it was often blunded before. The result is a seven to nine and away at the bottom of the ranking. Up to the play-off 1 places!
After a home win against Waasland-Beveren and a draw on and against Kortrijk, it was time for the arrival of KAS Eupen, the last one in the stand. KAA Gent started excellent. After almost three minutes, Yaya Kubo could already make the opening strike after Kalu’s well-prepared work. However, Eupen was not struck by that early retardation and played a good part. It got the most dangerous opportunities until Ghent received a penalty. Moses Simon reversed that flawlessly and thus ensured the double lead. Almost a strike after kicking off, Ghent received a new penalty shot after the clash in the Eupense defense at the next opportunity. Once again Simon knew who to convert and thus he took care of the 3-0 rest position that was also on the board at the end. The second half was unnecessary for both teams who played for reserve in the weekend matches.
A luxury for the Buffalo’s. After one half the match had already been played, so that it could be played quietly. No unnecessary effort because the Friday match will be coming soon. Quietly, the sick bowl breaks down and it also marks the quality that the players bring. Several players come to level, which also brings the team level up.
