Antwerp - Sint-Truiden predictions

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Sint-Truiden may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

The current perspective makes the situation clear. Given the superiority of Antwerp and the fact that Sint-Truiden are given 5.08 odds to win, it is easy to conclude that anything but a home win would be an unexpected shock.

Antwerp did not have big expectations heading into their Pro League trip last time out. At the odds of 3.12 they were not greatly favoured to claim an away win. However, after the first 45 minutes it surely looked as if they could actually snatch the three points. Ultimately, they lacked strength to endure the pressure for the entire match. A Gent draw is by no means a bad result though.

In the previous round, a goal in the first half against Westerlo transitioned into a 1:0 home win for Sint-Truiden. This was a relatively predictable outcome, considering the 2.08 odds on a home win.

Antwerp are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 6 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Sunday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

Sint-Truiden fans have a lot of cause for concern – with 10 concessions in their latest 3 away games, their track record seems to indicate a tendency to underperform in away games.

We see several draws on record between these two teams in the past season alone. Antwerp may be the favourites, but it’s becoming very clear that they can’t easily beat Sint-Truiden.

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Sunday.
