The goals of the match were scored by Kerim Mrabti (79' ), Norman Bassette (6' ) and Rob Schoofs (16' ) for Mechelen.

The home team is currently in the 15th position of the league, with 14 points won, after 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Antwerp, by (1‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Westerlo, by (4‑0). This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 10 points, against only 4 points in away matches. In the last 7 home league matches Kortrijk has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 21 possible. There are a few recurrent results in their home league matches at half‑time: 0‑1 (3 out of 7 matches) and 0‑0 (3 out of 7 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 10 of the last 21 matches have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 9 home matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (46'‑60'); they have conceded 4 of their 8 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

It is crucial for Kortrijk to get back to winning ways at home, in front of their fans. Additionally, the team is not in a favourable position in the Jupiler Pro League table, which makes the result even more important for their ambitions. Aiming to improve their situation, the team should focus on securing three points in this challenge against Mechelen.


Confirmed Lineup: Tom Vandenberghe, Nayel Mehssatou Sepúlveda, Dion De Neve, Bram Lagae, Haruya Fujii, João Silva, Abdelhak Kadri, Brecht Dejaegere, Tomoki Takamine, Ignacio Ferri Julià, Billel Messaoudi.
Coach: A. Čustović.

Analysis Mechelen

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 24 points won, after 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Sint‑Truiden, by (2‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against K. Beerschot V.A., by (3‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 8 points in away matches and 16 at their stadium, with 22 goals scored and 10 conceded at home, against 9 goals scored and 9 conceded in away matches. In the last 7 away league matches Mechelen has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 21 possible.

Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Mechelen has already shown that they have the potential to surprise the hosts in the Jupiler Pro League. The team has had a steady campaign, and in their pursuit of closing the gap to the top half, it is crucial that they maintain a high tempo in this duel against Kortrijk, who are not in a favourable situation this season. With a strong performance, their chances of returning home with three points will be considerable.


Confirmed Lineup: Ortwin De Wolf, Ahmed Touba, Daam Foulon, Toon Raemaekers, José Martinez, Kerim Mrabti, Rob Schoofs, A. Outtara Mohammed, Nikola Storm, Lion Lauberbach, Patrick Pflücke.
Coach: S. Defour.
