Charleroi vs Oostende Prediction & Betting tips
On Saturday afternoon Charleroi can prepare for the arrival of KV Oostende. For Charleroi it already seems like a last chance to still be in the running for POI after it crashed hard last week. At the away team there is still little to pick up, they put everything on POII. Can Mazzu’s troops pamper their home fans with a three-point ploy and hope for the top six?
Sporting Charleroi:
With six more games to go, Charleroi is in eighth place in the standings at four points in Ghent, the sixth in the stand. It must also let RSC Anderlecht come first, which makes the fight incredibly hard. Especially if just like last week is lost at Mouscron. Chairman Bayat could not hide his disappointment and went to coach Mazzu for the first time immediately after closing. “This is unacceptable,” he said. “This can and will not happen a second time”. Somewhat disrespectful in my opinion, but it happened.
Charleroi coach Mazzu had his winter hunt Morioka on the bench in the top 6 places, but that turned out to be a bad move. The visitors went through the lower limit in the first half with hardly a successful action, although Osimhen was surprisingly close to the opening goal twice more. Butez was right after the kick-off and just after the half hour. Mouscron dominated and got a wage to work before the break, although there was a healthy dose of luck in the game. Vojvoda tried it from very far. His shot wiped off Angella, got a nice curve and was headed over Penneteau’s goal. After the break Morioka had to become the great savior, but further than a nice pass, the Japanese did not come either. He set Osimhen on the way to a goal, but he missed the keeper for the third time. At Moeskroen the balls flew in easily. On the hour, the blatant Benson newcomer could serve Friede after a nice run on the left and Bakic pushed Charleroi into the pit in minute 73. After an action by Awoniyi, a first shot by Bakic was saved, but the resumption did disappear into goal. Mouscron is completely out of the relegation zone, Charleroi wastes valuable points in the battle for Play-Off I.
Mazzu was visibly disappointed after the game, of course after the conflict with the chairman: “This is an evening to be forgotten as quickly as possible, on all levels Mouscron was superior, on the scoreboard, but also in the game. We have missed our match completely, of course there was a lack of mentality and enthusiasm, but also technically it was not good, there was a lot of waste in our game, everything went wrong. tonight we have to remember, the ranking does not tell us anything: every match has to be played, we have to present ourselves better on the pitch. ” On newcomer Morioka, Mazzu had the following opinion: “Morioka showed nice things, but it was not easy for him, he comes on the field in a team that is not running, he can not only make the difference, it becomes harder and harder to Play-off I. Mathematically everything is still possible, but then we have to play differently.
KV Oostende:
With a further eighteen points to be divided, the lead of nine points on Lokeren must be enough for the preservation. However, there was never talk of a possible relegation at Ostend, they nevertheless only third last in a fourteenth place. As Verheyen said last week and I have been a whole season already; it does not manage to win teams in the top six, maybe even top eight. There are no results that can be called surprising and of course you will stay in the second column, now even below. Last week Antwerp got over the floor. You can already guess what the result was.
A mentally battered Ostend, which had not yet been recovered from the cup shutdown, soon got a new boost. Ivo Rodrigues headed a sweeping cross from Buta out of the reach of Dutoit against the ropes: 0-1 after less than five minutes. Antwerp showed no mercy for KVO and remained fully in favor of the attack, with pegs from Buta and again Rodrigues. In the meantime, Ostend was not able to cause any threat whatsoever. For a while KVO seemed to be fighting in the match, but immediately after that it was already Antwerp, which hit the clock. Dutoit avoided the 0-2 with a double save, Rodrigues and Refaelov just missed. Even Jelle Van Damme felt like attacking his head, his header missed the frame except for one. At the stroke of rest, there was actually a chance for Ostend from the air. Van Damme unleashed a cross from Nouri to Vanlerberghe, but he was too surprised to outwit Bolat. After the break Ostend succeeded a bit better in keeping the game in balance. That resulted in a few half-chances for the home team, but really getting Bolat into trouble was not immediately enough. Antwerp itself was less threatening for the day than in the first half. Except for a serious miss of Bolingi there was little to note because of the visitors, who so failed to secure the victory. Twenty minutes before time, KVO saw his effort almost rewarded with an equalizer, but Milovic’s header died against the bar. Fifteen minutes later, the KVO supporters again turned to their hair when a flame from substitute Coopman hit the bar. For example, it remained shaky until the end for Antwerp, which ultimately only gave KVO a definitive verdict in the extra time. Estimated Geoffry Hairemans, who still seemed to be on the road to STVV during the winter march and now shortly before the end, the three points crossed the line for Antwerp.
Gert Verheyen sees his team lose again after they have not played a bad game again: “It is again nothing and it is painful again.” The wind was a determining factor, but the little bit of luck and coolness were lacking. “What I see on the field, I agree But you also want points and you need them urgently, the whole club craves for it, how many points, I do not add a few, but as soon as possible enough to be completely safe. ”
