Eupen, Recent FormEupen will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Club Brugge in which they suffered a 4-0 away defeat. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 4 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Club Brugge who had 21 attempts and 6 on target.
Having conceded 9 goals and scored just 2 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 21 of their 25 games overall.
Losing 4 of their last 6 matches will concern them, but they have picked up some important points by winning the other 2 of these games. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 7 of the first 12 league games at Kehrwegstadion.
Gent, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 home defeat by Cercle Brugge will have left the Gent squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with a 70% share of the possession and clocked up 20 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to Cercle Brugge, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Results have been poor for Gent recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Gent, Tarik Tissoudali will be looking to add more goals against Eupen in this match.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 2-1 win for Gent.
The Eupen defence has struggled against De Buffalo's in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 13 games. Gent have managed to keep a clean sheet against Eupen in 4 of their previous 5 meetings. Pandas have struggled to break down the Gent defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 1 time in their last 5 meetings. We've seen plenty of goals from Gent when they've visited Pandas in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 6 goals, which is an average of 2 per game.
Gent will be looking to continue their winning streak against Eupen having won in their last 5 meetings in the league.
