Lierse take on the visitors St. Truiden at “Het Lisp” in the gameweek nine of the Europa League Group A of the Jupiler League. The match will be played in Lier on Tuesday, May 16th.
Last round Lierse broke their three-game undefeated streak by 2:3 loss to Waasland-Beveren. During the main season Lierse performed in the Proximus League, consequently, it is already the great success for Frederik Vanderbiest’s side to settle at the fourth place in the Europa League Group A among six teams whereby five other sides represent the elite division. In 2017 Lierse recorded four triumphs, three draws and only one loss in eight played encounters in front of their supporters.

St. Truiden won three last clashes in the Europa League Group A: vs. Waasland-Beveren 1:0, vs. Standard Liege 1:0 and vs. St. Gilloise 4:1. That successful run allowed “De Kanaries” to took the lead in the Group A with 16 points gained and became the main contender for its winning. This year St. Truiden participated in nine battles on the road resulting in five defeats, two draws and two victories taken in two recent away matches.
The visiting side’s level is a little bit higher, however, the home-field advantage eliminates gap in teams’ experience. Both the hosting and visiting sides scored many goals, thus, I believe that the opponent will combine a number of goals in the upcoming head-to-head as well. Tuesday triumph will guarantee to St. Truiden their participation in the race for the UEFA Europa League next season, still Lierse didn’t get use to lose in face of their fans in this season.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
