Mechelen aim to build on back-to-back wins over Charleroi and Cercle Brugge, but given St. Truiden's three-game winning run at home, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home triumph. The Canaries head into this clash in strong form, collecting 2.00 points per game overall and an impressive 2.50 PPG at home, where they are unbeaten in four. Their matches tend to be open, averaging 2.90 goals per game, with BTTS landing in 60% of fixtures. Offensively, they score 1.60 goals per match, while defensive stability remains mixed, conceding 1.30 on average. The underlying numbers back their attacking intent, with 1.53 expected goals per game. Forward Robert-Jan Vanwesemael returns from suspension, giving the hosts a timely boost in attack.
Mechelen are also in decent rhythm, posting 1.70 PPG overall and looking particularly dangerous away from home with 1.80 PPG. Their away games are high-scoring affairs, averaging 3.20 total goals, while BTTS has landed in 60% of matches. However, defensive issues persist, with 2.00 expected goals against on the road. There are no fresh injury concerns for the visiting team.
Considering strong goal averages, especially in Mechelen away games, there is big value in betting on Over 2.5 goals. Home Win and St. Truiden DNB markets also seem appealing as the Canaries have been impressive at their Daio Wasabi Stayen of late.
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Sunday 21 December 2025 at 15:00.
