Beerschot-Wilrijk - Antwerp predictions

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Beerschot-Wilrijk are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

The visiting side should be able to achieve victory in this clash against Beerschot-Wilrijk. Antwerp are favourites to claim three points and at 1.75 betting odds they are a good pick for any sensible punter.

Beerschot-Wilrijk played their previous league match as huge underdogs but their supporters hoped for a positive result after seeing their team holding on for a draw in the first half. Unfortunately, Beerschot-Wilrijk ran out of steam after the break, which resulted in a devastating OH Leuven defeat.

Antwerp were on their way to winning their most recent Pro League matchup against Genk, but the score equalised in the second half. That would have been a solid victory for Antwerp considering how close the betting odds were.

Though the 5 concessions over the past 3 away games for Beerschot-Wilrijk may not directly affect this particular match, such a history may be cause for concern for their supporters.

Antwerp have a notoriously bad track record when it comes to defending their posts. Though their recent streak of 5 conceded goals over 3 home games does not directly apply here, it’s still bad news.

Before assuming the favoured visitors will win, keep in mind that their lineup has been altered due to several injuries. Michel Ange Balikwisha, Mahamadou Doumbia, Björn Engels, Christopher Scott will all be missing for various reasons, leaving the coach with a shorter lineup than usual.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.65 odds offered at Betway.
