Mechelen vs St Truiden PREDICTION & BETTING TIPS - 05/04/2024

Mechelen will be aiming to build on a 3-2 win over Leuven when they take on St. Truiden on Friday evening. Mechelen aim to overtake Gent in top position in the standings, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Experienced striker Islam Slimani serves a one-game ban following his sending-off in the triumph over Leuven, while Toon Raemaekers remains in the recovery room.

The Canaries, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Club Brugge and Westerlo, but beating Mechelen on the road is easier said than done. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in five of the previous six meetings between the two sides. Aboubakary Koita is sidelined with injury, while Shinji Okazaki is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the match.
