Westerlo will be aiming to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Cercle Brugge when they face Leuven in the Jupiler League round 20. Westerlo have already recorded five wins at home this season, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to pick up all three points from Friday’s clash. Both Jan Bernat and Erdon Daci are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Meanwhile, the visitors aim to recover from a 3-2 loss to Kortrijk, but given their four-game winless run on the road, we are tempted to put our money on the home side. Mathieu Maertens misses out with a sprained leg, while fellow midfielder Milan Taildeman will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. In the first half of the season Leuven defeated Westerlo 2-0 at Den Dreef, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
