RWD Molenbeek will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 away win against Oud-Heverlee Leuven.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 15 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Oud-Heverlee Leuven, who had 18 shots on goal with 5 on target.  

Goals have totally eluded them in each of their last 2 games and only a reasonably strong defence will be providing a glimmer of hope to Cláudio Caçapa.

Losing 1-0 home to Gent won't leave the Mechelen squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league.  In that game they recorded 51 % of the possession, with 14 attempts on goal, 2 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 11 shots on goal.  

Supremo Steven Defour will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 12 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 6 goals they've managed to net.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

Their form away from home has been of some concern, having recorded just 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches on the road.  

Rob Schoofs has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against RWD Molenbeek.
