Charleroi hosts St. Truiden in round 29 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The match will be played on Friday, March 5th at Stade du Pays de Charleroi (Charleroi)
Charleroi shows good football only in segments. The Zebras quickly lost ground after a powerful start (six consecutive victories in the championship and 2-1 with Partizan in the Europa League). And they were knocked out by the next opponent, Lech Poznan. In the Jupiler League, Charleroi gained only one victory in the next 9 rounds (over Cercle Brugge). After that, the team showed a couple of good segments, alternating them with failures. It won three times in a row in December. And recently, it has not lost during four meetings. The Zebras also looked good last Friday. They hosted Genk and even leveled the score. But in the 83rd minute, Torstvedt scored the decisive goal and brought a 2-1 victory to the Smurfs.

Not so long ago, St. Truiden was a “football lift” and periodically lost its place in the elite division of Belgium. But the Canaries managed to gradually regain the status of at least the middle peasant, albeit without excessive ambition. At the time of the suspension of last season, the team was in 12th position. Now the club is lower but still has an advantage over outsiders (31 points scored in 29 games). In the winter. it had a good segment with an abundance of victories. But in February, there was a sharp decline. In the Cup, Sint-Truiden lost 0-1 to Genk. As for the championship, the Canaries managed to gain only one point in the last four rounds, tying with Antwerp away (0:0). But it seems that it happened due to the workload of the opponent in the Europa League playoffs. The rest of the rivals (Oostende, Zulte-Waregem, and even Eupen) defeated the Canaries without any difficulties, scoring two or three goals.
Charleroi has the advantage in head-to-head meetings. It also manifested itself in the last matches between the clubs (three wins and one defeat). The Zebras won on the road in December, but Sint-Truiden was in the minority for almost half a half - Amoa picked up two yellow cards by the 69th minute. However, the audience is unlikely to see many goals in the upcoming match because both opponents do not shine. We will bet on Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
