Charleroi, in turn, can’t be happy about their recent slump – the visiting side recorded three defeats in a row and failed to score a single goal in these matches, 0-1 against Mechelen, 0-2 against Anderlecht and 0-1 against Gent. As the result, the team moved down on seventh place in the table with 34 points and 24-20 goal difference. As to the performance on the road, the team gained 11 points in 11 matches, which isn’t great result. The most recent away win was taken almost two months ago.
Charleroi are more successful in matches against Oostende and took 2-1 victory in reverse match. However, the Zebras aren’t in their best shape and play on the road, where they aren’t strong and competitive. All the above give us the group to expect the hosts to prevail in the match.
Prediction for the match: Oostende to win.
