Zulte Waregem, Recent FormZulte Waregem will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-2 away win against Anderlecht. During that encounter they had 47% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 9 of their 19 shots on goal.
Whilst manager Mbaye Leye will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, with them having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 12 in the same period. Their defensive record does not make good reading so far this season as they have conceded at least 1 goal in 19 of their 21 league games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at Elindus Arena, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 6 of the first 10 league games at Elindus Arena.
Zinho Gano will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Zulte Waregem.
Westerlo, Recent FormThe Westerlo squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-2 home defeat against Genk, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with a 60% share of the possession and clocked up 14 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to Genk, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 14 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 14 games. With 3 clean sheets in their last 6 away league matches, they have shown themselves to be a tough nut to crack away from home.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.
With 3 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Westerlo, Lyle Foster will be looking to add more goals against Zulte Waregem in this match.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 2-0 win for Westerlo.
SVZW have scored in each of their last 10 games at home in the league against De Kempeneers. Essevee have struggled to keep Westerlo at bay when these two teams have met at Elindus Arena, during the last 3 times they have hosted Westerlo in the league, they have conceded a total of 7 goals.
There is only really one injury concern for the SVZW manager Mbaye Leye ahead of this clash, with Wout Debuyser (Unknown) missing out, which gives Leye a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Jonas De Roeck has a number of injury concerns in his Westerlo squad to contend with: Ján Bernát (Cruciate ligament), Erdon Daci (Cruciate ligament) and Bryan Reynolds (Shoulder)
