Jupiler Pro League
Dender continues to occupy the last place in the standings with only two victories in 19 matches played since the start of the season, with losses totaling 11. However, it is important to note that these two victories were achieved relatively recently – in fact, in their last two away games. This suggests that the team is not completely demoralized and is still finding a way to the opponent's goal.
Mechelen at a higher level, but not without weaknessesMechelen more often achieves success and is not surprisingly in fifth place in the standings. The team has greater quality and a more stable structure, but that does not mean it is flawless, especially defensively. Against bolder opponents, they often leave spaces that can be exploited.
Prediction: Both Teams to ScoreThe history of the rivalry is a clear indicator – in the last seven encounters between the two teams, there have always been goals in both nets, as well as over 2.5 goals. Combined with Dender's current need to seek points and Mechelen's offensive potential, my expectations are for yet another open match.
