Leuven lost nine of their 15 away matches in the regular season last term
Beerschot won promotion last term with a solid record at home
The visitors have lost six of their last seven games away to Beerschot
Beerschot make top flight return
Beerschot won the Belgian second division last season and they’ll be looking to get points on the board early this term. The hosts return to the top flight aiming to build off some solid home form, which saw them ship just 11 goals in 15 matches at their own ground.
The hosts have a kind opening fixture, as they meet a Leuven side who finished up in midtable last time out. The visitors really struggled on their travels, losing nine of their 15 regular season away trips.
Leuven have lost six of their last seven visits to Beerschot and their away record suggests they’ll struggle. The visitors conceded 32 times across those first 15 away matches last season and with Beerschot riding the high of promotion, they’re great value for the points.
