For the league, Mechelen won 12 points out of 27 possible points, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 9 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 7 of the last 9 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 2 of the last 19 matches for the First Division A, they have reached half‑time in advantage in all of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the match in all of them.

The Mechelen campaign is not bad and if it keeps like this it won't be able to complain at the end of the season. On the other hand, they can look for something even better and that will depend only on them and what they will present in the field. Therefore, they should show within the four lines a lot of attitude and determination in order not to risk losing silly points.

In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against AS Eupen, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Gent, by (2‑1).

In 19 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times but have turned the score around in 2.

Not surprisingly, we see Oostende at the bottom of the table, after all this is a reflection of its field performance. Of course that doesn't satisfy them, but they'll need to show something better on the pitch if they want to win some positions. Points need to be added in the maximum of games no matter where they play or who they play against. As such, it will be up to Oostende alone to pursue its growth, and it knows that it must work hard not to stagnate. In this match Renato Neto will be out for being in the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Fabrice Ondoa, Wout Faes, Logan Ndenbe, Goran Milović, Renato Neto, Ante Palaversa, Andrew Hjulsager, Ronald Vargas, Jelle Bataille, Fashion Sakala.
