Our Best Prediction and Betting Tips for Mechelen vs Kortrijk

Mechelen to Win

At the beginning of the season, Mechelen visited Kortrilk and beat them 4-1. This time they will be playing at home, so we have no hesitation in including a Kakkers victory in our predictions.

Although The Guys won the previous matchday, they had problems against the worst team of the season, against Mechelen, the challenge will be even more difficult, that’s why we pick the home team. The two teams met in the Belgian Cup and Mechelen advanced to the next round.

Over 2.5 Goals

We expect this match to maintain the characteristics of their previous encounters. In 6 of the last 7 head-to-head encounters, they finished with more than 2.5 goals. 5 of Kortrijk’s last 6 league games ended with more than 2.5 goals, in fact in four of them there were more than 3.5 goals. So it will not be unusual if this factor is repeated.

BTTS

Another of our predictions is that both clubs will bury the ball in the net, this is one of the reasons why Mechelen vs Kortrijk marchups are usually exciting. In the last few rounds, both clubs had trouble keeping a clean sheet. Both The Kakkers and The Guys conceded at least one goal in their last 4 matches.

Mechelen vs Kortrijk Preview: Go To The Bottom!

Mechelen

The Kakkers lost away to Standard Liege, and the threat of the relegation zone reappeared. Standard Liege scored the only two goals of the game, one at the end of the first half and one at the end of the second.

Steven Defour’s team had more possession but lacked the ideas to create attacking chances. After 90 minutes they barely managed two shots on target. The next game will be crucial as the winner will move away from the bottom, while the loser will stay there.

Steven Defour´s Team Updates:

Mechelen’s situation may be further complicated by the absence of Jordi Vanlerberghe, the defender who has been one of the team’s defensive stalwarts, however, he will not be available for this match. Lucas Bijker and Rayane Falchou will also be absent, all of whom are still recovering. The opposing team is one of the weakest, so it will be an excellent opportunity for those players who don’t get as much playing time.

Kortrijk

The Guys showed in the previous round that they have changed their attitude and improved the way they play. In the last four rounds, they accumulated 9 points, almost the same as they had accumulated in the previous 17 rounds.

Still, the coach needs to correct some aspects of his team, as the previous matchday they played against the bottom of the table and had a lot of difficulty beating them. Kortrijk scored a total of 3 goals and conceded 2.

Bernd Storck´s Team Update:

Kortrijk is at a stage where every decision will be decisive for the future of the team, so the coach must decide who will be the replacements for Jonah Osabutey, Oleksiy Sych, and David Henen are all out through injury. With Kevin Vandendriessche out through suspension, the team is missing players in all lines. Although there are enough players to replace them, the coach will not have much variety, and he hopes that no other players will join the injured.
