The home advantage may prove pivotal, as both teams have displayed marked differences in performance between home and away matches.

Team analysis: Gent

The home team is currently in 6th place, having earned 42 points from 11 wins, 12 draws, and 6 losses. In their penultimate match, they drew 1-1 at home against Club Brugge, and in their latest outing, they secured a 0-1 away victory against Antwerp. Gent performs significantly better at home, with a record of 9 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses in front of their own supporters, compared to 3 wins, 8 draws, and 4 losses away. In their last 10 home league matches, Gent has accumulated 18 points, with their attacking line consistently finding the net, having scored in 7 of their last 10 league appearances. Notably, 13 of their last 14 home matches in this competition have concluded with more than 1.5 goals. Of the 29 matches in this competition, they have managed to turn the score around only once in the 11 instances where they conceded the first goal. A particular statistic worth mentioning is that 5 of the 14 goals conceded at home occurred between the 46th and 60th minutes.

The Gent squad heads into this round with confidence intact, having secured their place in the final phase. They have demonstrated a robust defensive organisation while maintaining an effective attacking front. They are likely to initiate the match offensively, aiming to control possession and apply pressure on Kortrijk from the outset. The expectation is for Gent to dominate, exploiting their opponents’ weaknesses while remaining focused to avoid unexpected setbacks and secure a positive outcome in this fixture.

Team analysis: Kortrijk

After achieving 6 wins, 5 draws, and suffering 18 losses, the visiting team is positioned 15th, with a total of 23 points. In their most recent match, they triumphed over OH Leuven at home (2-0), but prior to that, they faced a disappointing defeat against Sint-Truiden away (4-2). Kortrijk’s record shows that they are heavily influenced by their home crowd, having managed just 1 win, 3 draws, and 11 losses in their last 30 away games, scoring 12 goals while conceding 37. Conversely, they have a home record of 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses, with 14 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the league, Kortrijk has only secured 2 points from the last 10 away games, losing 8 of them.

Remarkably, they have not won any of their last 13 away matches in this competition. Defensively, they have allowed goals in 9 of their last 10 fixtures, thus lacking solid defensive resilience; however, they have managed to find the net in 7 of their last 10 games. When playing away, matches tend to see goals, as 10 of their last 14 outings have finished with over 2.5 goals. Across 29 games this season, they have conceded the first goal on 18 occasions and have only managed to overturn the scoreline once.

Kortrijk’s recent victory has provided a much-needed confidence boost, ending a lengthy winless stretch. Nevertheless, they remain at the bottom of the table, needing to prepare for a relegation battle. The side must demonstrate improved defensive solidity to avoid conceding early goals which could hinder their chances. Away from home, they are expected to adopt a more cautious approach, primarily looking to exploit counterattacking opportunities as they look for crucial points in the remaining fixtures of their season.
