Westerlo vs Sporting Charleroi prediction, odds and how to watch

Westerlo claimed a deserved 2-0 victory at Sint-Truiden on Sunday, with Norman Bassette and Cisse Sandra scoring either side of half-time to leave the home side with nothing to show for 17 shots.

Sporting Charleroi won 3-2 against Cercle Brugge in the Belgian Pro League, but they made it far harder than it needed to be. Two penalties, a VAR intervention, and a Cercle side that dominated possession but couldn't convert their chances tell the story.

Sporting Charleroi took all three points at Zulte-Waregem thanks to a Jakob Napoleon Romsaas goal on 29 minutes, as the hosts squandered chance after chance in a maddening afternoon for the home side.

Westerlo beat Standard Liège 4-2 in the Belgian Pro League despite being second-best in possession and attacks for much of the match. Clinical finishing and a ruthless second-half performance did the job.

Sporting Charleroi made it four wins from five in the Belgian Pro League with a convincing 3-1 victory at KV Kortrijk, a side that has now conceded six goals without reply in their two previous outings and looks badly short of the basics.

Westerlo were taken apart at Mechelen on Saturday, conceding four without reply as Shunsuke Saito scored twice and the visitors offered almost nothing in return.

Westerlo head into Sunday's Belgian Pro League clash with three defeats from their last five and a defence that has shipped 14 goals in that run. Antwerp arrive with their own inconsistencies, but the head-to-head record tells a very clear story.

Standard Liège host Sporting Charleroi on Sunday in a Belgian Pro League fixture that has genuine bite. Both sides are in form, the head-to-head is tight, and Charleroi have already beaten Standard this year.
