Beerschot VA hosts Zulte Waregem in round 2 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The match will be played on Sunday, July 16th at Olympisch Stadion (Antwerp)
Beerschot showed a great start to the new season of the Jupiler League. The newcomer managed to beat Oostende on the road (1:2). The team from Antwerp started the season a week earlier than the others did because it played the return playoff match with Heverlee Leuven and defeated the opponent with a 4-1 score. However, according to the decision of the federation, the composition of the championship participants was increased to 18 teams, and we may say the clubs held a friendly match at the beginning of August. Nevertheless, Beerschot is in good shape. The team is attacking and very international (Kazakh, Ukrainian, Algerian, Togolese, Dutch and Austrians), and Cameroonian Noubissi netted a winning brace in the match with Oostende. In general, Beerschot is a very interesting team that plays attack first, often forgetting about defense.

Zulte Waregem suffered an offensive 1-2 defeat from Genk at home, having conceded two goals in the last 20 minutes, although the veteran of Belgian football and the legend of Anderlecht Olivier Deschacht (defender) scored the first goal at the end of the first half. Nevertheless, Dury's men have never been reliable in defense, and they gave away a penalty converted by Dessers in the 80th minute. In general, the attacking style has not changed since last season, and it poses a threat to the defense of Beerschot.
Meanwhile, the teams have never crossed paths with each other in official meetings. Argentinean Losada's players promoted as an invited team under the special rules of the Jupiler League in the second part of the 18-19 season, but they played in a group other than Zulte. Although the teams have never met before, they have a lot in common. They equally give preference to attack and are not particularly reliable in defense, which indicates that very fun football with many attempts awaits us. And if the teams are not let down by the conversion, then we may well witness “Both teams to score – yes” already in the first half of the meeting. This is a very promising outcome for this meeting!
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes
