Eupen vs Waregem Prediction & Betting tips
KAS Eupen will receive the Zulte-Waregem visit on Saturday afternoon. In the rankings, both teams are almost crammed together, free of degradation and apart from other worries. There are still four league matches before the play-offs start, as a result of which the matches are of little importance. It can only provide extra confidence and make some experiments. Not that it would be such a smart plan to be able to react at full strength in the POs. Can Eupen win again after three losses and a draw?
KAS Eupen:
This week Claude Makélélé was once again believed. Not because of his coaching skills but because of his past as a player. Nevertheless, his coach qualities should also be put in a good light. With a team like Eupen without real outliers, it is still pretty much in the middle of the standings with four match days to go. After three defeats, it was time for points gain. That almost succeeded in the field of KV Oostende …
KV Oostende is not in acute danger of degradation, but preferred to increase its lead on Lokeren red lantern. Not an easy task if you know that the last victory of the coast team dates from the beginning of December. It then won Lokeren. Nevertheless, Oostende made a good start, but young wolf D’Haese decided too low on Van Crombrugge. In the fifteen minutes Lombaerts noticed a strong bang. The only rebuttal from Eupen came via a tight but harmless free kick from Fall. On the other side, the home team kept insisting. Tomasevic saw his afzwaaier disappear on the sidelines, but on attempts by D’Haese and Guri, Van Crombrugge again had to pick up great rescues. Sindrit Guri also saw his second attempt stranding on the Eupense goalie. Ten minutes before halftime the Albanian was allowed to try again, but he kicked in the face of teammate Vanlerberghe. A few seconds later, the ball was at the feet of D’Haese and this time Van Crombrugge had to turn around. So Ostend plunged in with an over-earned lead. After half time we got to see the bipolar side of Ostend and it crept back into its own sixteen meters. Fall and Keita had come out of the locker room with a lot of enthusiasm, but the resurgence of the visitors was short-lived after a few dribbles and non-dangerous moves. Ostend did not play anything anymore, but seemed on the way to a smooth and deserved win. Van Crombrugge drove a rare attempt from under his bar, but the second goal surprisingly enough caught the other side. A Eupense corner kick bounced through the suit to Toyokawa, who had plenty of time to throw the 1-1 past Dutoit. Keita picked up a stupid second yellow card from the visitors after protest, but even against ten people, Ostend no longer created any danger.
For Eupen it is frightened to see what goalkeeper Van Crombrugge will do after this season, as is clear from his interview after the game: “I do not want to be arrogant, but when I feel that the boys need me, I can rise above myself. . Then I am very happy today that I also get a result and today extra special because we remain in first class. I want to play as many matches as possible this season to play myself in the look and to convince clubs of my qualities. The rest of the work is for my broker and he does his job well. ”
Zulte-Waregem:
After a very bad start to the league, Francky Dury and his men managed to get the machine up and running again around the month of November – December. With four more game days to go, it now has an advantage of eleven points on Lokeren and is saved from relegation. There was never a question of a trainer change, not even with the outside world. It is known that the board maintains full confidence in Dury and again that worked out well. However, they would like to have another chance of a possible play-off I or European football, who knows, maybe via PO II.
It was a while before the game was over, but once that happened, Zulte Waregem and STVV served a very nice pot of football. The home team was the best out of the starting blocks, but Steppe kept De Pauw from an early goal. Harbaoui also became acquainted with the excellent reflexes of the STVV goalkeeper when he came close to 1-0 at Bürki’s request. STVV needed some more time to get into his rhythm. Something for half an hour Boli came out of sight with Bossut, but the striker had apparently not expected that and was aiming for the giant chance. On the other side, Steppe continued to pile up the handsome rescues. Harbaoui came close to his 100th goal in first division, but that was again reckoned outside Steppe. Steppe also remained the culprit of Harbaoui in the 2nd half. He again got an excellent chance of giving Peeters, but the third time was not the right time for the striker. Steppe prevented the 1-0 with another excellent save. Fifteen minutes before the end, the STVV goalkeeper then had to give himself. De Pauw hit the ball in front of goal and Peeters smashed the opening goal in one go past Steppe. The STVV reaction did not stay out. Asamoah bumped into Bossut from a sharp angle, but ten minutes before the end, it was still a hit for the visitors. Boli was launched by Garcia, encompassed Bossut and tapped the 1-1 in easily. Furthermore, both teams did not come anymore.
Francky Dury looked back with satisfaction on the game. In addition to the result, he was a satisfied man: “Steppe has done at least four rescues, we have created many chances, so if you are 1-0 in the final quarter, then you basically have to stick to that.” STVV is very strong in the transition When they break out they have a lot of speed, we sometimes have too much loss of the ball on half of the opponent, but I have to congratulate my team on their mentality, we played a good game. ”
