Charleroi also played poorly in December as the team recorded only one win, three draws and two defeats in recent matches against Mechelen, 0-1, and 0-2 to Anderlecht. The Zebras are no sixth on the league’s standings with 34 points gained and only two points ahead of the hosts of the matches. The team is cautious in matches on the road, focusing on avoiding goals and took 11 points in 10 matches, recorded five draws and has 10-11 aggregate goal difference.
Gent fail to win a single head-to-head against Charleroi since March 2014 for seven matches in a row while five of these games ended with draws and two times the Zebras were victorious. In prediction for the match we should consider strong home results of the Indians who should prevail in the match. On top of that, poor streak of Charleroi should increase chances of Gent for three points in this game.
Prediction for the match: Gent to win.
