Pro League matchday 12: who will seize the opportunity?

The Belgian Pro League has another fascinating weekend in store for football fans and bettors alike. 11 matchdays have come and gone, and some trends are emerging. Can we use this knowledge to our advantage when placing a smart bet? Here’s our look at matchday 12 of the JPL. Do you agree with us?

KV Kortrijk vs Beerschot

25/10 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: KV Kortrijk

KV Kortrijk will fight tooth and nail for a win to stay out of the relegation zone. Beerschot, meanwhile, seems already a lost cause.

Charleroi vs OH Leuven

26/10 4 p.m.

Most likely to win: Charleroi

This is an interesting matchup, as it pits the number 11 against the number 12. Expect Charleroi to win for a place in the top half of the rankings.

Dender vs KV Mechelen

26/10 6.15 p.m.

Most likely to win: Dender

Dender remains somewhat of revelation this JPL season. For its part, our sponsored team KV Mechelen is on the rise, but unfortunately, we see it leave Denderleeuw without point.

STVV vs Westerlo

26/10 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Westerlo

STVV wants to get out of the relegation zone, but Westerlo is a tricky opponent to beat. Away win for the visitors after an arduous battle.

Club Brugge vs Anderlecht

27/10 1.30 p.m.

Most likely to win: Club Brugge

A true Belgian classic! Club Brugge has 18 points, Anderlecht 17. All things considered, it’s most plausible that Club Brugge keeps the 3 points at home.

Antwerp vs Standard

27/10 4 p.m.

Most likely to win: Antwerp

Antwerp is in a well-deserved second place so far. Standard, on the other hand, has some slack to pick up. Antwerp shouldn’t have too many problems winning at home.

KAA Gent vs KRC Genk

27/10 6.30 p.m.

Most likely to win: KRC Genk

KAA Gent has proved it status as outside title challenger with a third place after 11 matchdays. Leader KRC Genk will steal the 3 points from the Buffalos, though.

Union vs Cercle Brugge

27/10 7.15 p.m.

Most likely to win: Union

Union could win a few places with a home victory. GP-sponsored Cercle Brugge will bring fascinating football as always, but winning seems too tall an order.
