OH Leuven - Sporting Charleroi predictions

Though the home team can be called favourites, they can’t quite relax going into the match at Sporting Charleroi. Their advantage is quite narrow, and just a few mistakes could end up costing them the game.

Sporting Charleroi will need to dig deep in order to get past the motivated hosts. An away win at 3.08 betting odds is considered a high risk but that’s exactly why the reward would be much sweeter.

OH Leuven went behind in the first half of their last Pro League clash. Playing away against a tough rival is never easy and OH Leuven can even count themselves lucky to return home with a narrow Standard Liège defeat.

The 1:3 result of Sporting Charleroi’s home match against Anderlecht was expected by most online sportsbooks. Sporting Charleroi were clear underdogs at the start of the game, and it quickly went south for them.

OH Leuven’s attackers have been seeing a lot of success lately, even in away matches. For instance, they scored 6 times during the course of their previous three away games.

With 7 goals in Sporting Charleroi’s net over their three most recent home games, online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of ending this game one with a clean sheet.

If there’s one thing to note about the history of this matchup, it’s a fact their matches tend to end in a draw. Several matches this season ended inconclusively, so it neems neither team is able to reliably tip the scales one way or another.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Thibault Vlietinck, A. Calut, Franco Russo will have to sit this one out, while Sporting Charleroi will have to make do without Stefan Knezevic, Isaac Mbenza, Ryota Morioka.

Going for a Home Win is already a fairly safe bet but we’d like to shore it up even further. The highest-value way of achieving this is through a Draw No Bet wager, which shortens the odds to 1.50 but is well worth the price.
