Seraing take on the visitors Eupen in the round 18 match of Belgian Jupiler Pro League. The match will be played on Friday, December 23rd at Stade du Pairay (Seraing).
will try to survive in the Jupiler League again. The "Red-Blacks" have recently been able to give a real breakthrough, having moved from the 3rd division of the country to the elite one. But, of course, such a team at the highest level is not very competitive. However, last season the newcomer was able to gain a foothold: they got ahead of the completely failed Beerschot, and were able to win the playoffs. For now, everything is also moving towards play-offs. In 17 matches, it was possible to win only three times and with 11 points it is impossible to get ahead of anyone. However, Seraing are only 1 point behind Kortrijk, 2 points behind Waregem, so the situation is not hopeless yet.

Eupen do not yet look like a local analogue for PSG. The Pandas are owned by the Aspire Foundation, a Qatari project that also controls Paris-Saint-Germain. But the approaches, including funding, are fundamentally different. Just enough effort is allocated to the Belgian project to avoid being relegated. So, last season it was "borderline", 15th place. And now it turns out to go exactly to the same position in the current standings. However, there were quite positive results this season. 5 victories are already in the asset, including the one over the champion, Brugge. And in November, before the pause for the World Cup, they gave the first draw of the season, and incredibly spectacular, when, thanks to Sumano's goal in the 94th minute, it turned out to draw with outstanding score 5-5 on the Zulte Waregem field.
In recent years, Seraing have done well to play with Eupen. In 3 recent head-to-head fights against the "pandas" they took 7 points. Seraing looks very weak, and it is unlikely to seriously add after a pause. We bet on Eupen with handicap "0".
Prediction for the match: Eupen to win with 0.0 handicap.
