Prediction: 1-0
St Truiden
Antwerp will be aiming to overtake Club Brugge in third place in the standings when they take on St. Truiden in the Jupiler League round 28. Antwerp are after their ninth home win of the process and the bookies see them as hot favourites to win Sunday’s encounter. Important winger Ange Balikwisha is a major doubt as well as defender Ritchie De Laet, while there are no fresh injury worries in Marc van Bommel’s team.
The Canaries, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 4-1 loss to Anderlecht, with the team beating Westerlo thanks to Ryotaro Ito’s goal, but given their three-game losing run on the road, we predict that the reigning champions are going to pick up all three points from the match. Sunday’s game comes too early for midfielder Frederic Ananou, while forward Shinji Okazaki faces race against the clock to be fit for the clash.
Highlighted Team (Antwerp):
Founded back in 1880, Antwerp is one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Great Old welcome their rivals at Bosuilstadion, the venue with the capacity of 16,144 people. Antwerp are well known for their red home kits, with the team wearing white shirts and white jerseys when playing on the travels.
Over the years Antwerp have been trying to close the gap between Belgian giants Anderlecht and Club Brugge, but they have yet to win the title in the recent history. The Great Old clinched their first domestic trophy back in 1929, with the team repeating the success two years later. The third and the fourth titles came in 1944 and 1957 respectively.
Beerschot A.C. are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, but they have a rivalry with Club Brugge as well. The club chiefs had a long-term partnership with famous English club Manchester United in the past, with Antwerp taking young footballers on loan to Old Trafford.
