Essential Leuven vs Antwerp Predictions & Betting Suggestions

Coach Marc Brys is very aware that his boys are the underdogs on the 26th of February. Stay tuned to find out more about why that is in our Leuven vs Antwerp predictions.

Vincent Janssen to Score Anytime

Vincent Janssen is one of the pleasant surprises this season in the Belgian Pro League. With 15 goals to his name and a bunch of assists, he’s not only topping Anwerp’s goalscoring charts but he’s a goal away from becoming the top scorer in the league as well.

The only player to outscore him so far is Genk’s target man Paul Onuachu with 16 goals so far. Considering Leuven’s stature, it would be an easy task for a juggernaut such as Vincent Janssen to find the net.

Over 1.5 Antwerp Goals

In six of the last 10 matches against this opponent, Antwerp managed to score at least two goals. The most goals they’ve scored in one match was in the last showdown on the 7th of August, 2022. The game at Bosulstadion ended with an embarrassing for Leuven 4-2 result in favor of Antwerp and we expect more of the same on the 26th of February as coach Mark van Bommel’s boys look razor-sharp these days.

Antwerp/Antwerp

Leuven’s only win over Antwerp in the last 10 years was on the 1st of March, 2021. Two years have passed since then and all Leuven have experienced is disappointments.

The last 10 games between the two clubs ended with five victories for Antwerp, one victory for Leuven, and four draws. And things certainly don’t look good for Leuven ahead of this clash as the team is struggling to perform a few points away from the relegation spots.

These Leuven vs Antwerp predictions go well with the match preview we compiled for you for free!

Leuven

As we previously mentioned in our Leuven vs Antwerp prediction, the home side isn’t doing so impressive these days. Sure, there’s an eight-point gap between Leuven and the relegation zone but with no victories in the last six league matches, participating in a survival battle this year might be inevitable.

Antwerp

Antwerp are in 3rd place in the Belgian Pro League. They are the team with the best momentum as the last five league matches ended with three victories and two draws. The last loss was recorded on the 15th of January as coach Mark van Bommel’s boys got pipped 2-0 at Stade Joseph Marien.
