Competition: Belgian Pro League
Date: 27th December 2022
Kickoff: 19:00 UTC / 20:00 CET
Venue: Het Kuipje
Seventh-placed Westerlo will play third-placed Antwerp on Tuesday, as the Belgian Pro League enters its 18th game week this week. Both teams won by massive margins on the matchday as they scored over hai.5 goals alone and even managed lớn keep a clean sheet in the process. Westerlo have won three games fewer than Antwerp, and that justifies the nine point-gap between the two sides. What is more important lớn note though, is that Antwerp have the second-best defensive record in the league with just 17 goals conceded this season. Out of these 17, just nine have been conceded away from home in 8 games played. Westerlo have a huge task in hand here. There are some champions league predictions in here
Westerlo vs Royal Antwerp Betting Pick #1: BTTS
Westerlo might be far behind Antwerp in terms of performances as well as abilities but, at Het Kuipje, they have been a force to reckonw with. Just two losses and five wins at this venue since August, Westerlo have even scored against all their opponents playing at this venue. There is no doubt Antwerp are coming into this game as favourites, but Westerlo will no doubt make this clash harder to clinch for the visitors. We expect both sides to score in this game, as has been the case in five of the last seven meetings, between the two sides.
Westerlo vs Royal Antwerp Betting Pick #2: Over hai.5 goals
Antwerp will probably be tested in this game as Westerlo have been really good at home since the season began. Despite this, the visitors should be able lớn put two past their counterparts and we even expect the home side lớn get the game's fourth goal lớn secure a point at least. Thus, over 2.5 goals are highly likely in this game. Six of Antwerp's last eight games have seen over 2.5 goals and each of the last two meetings between the two teams have not ended in under hai.5 goals either.
