Match preview: Gent vs La Louvière

Gent and La Louvière will go head-to-head at the Ghelamco Arena in a 1st Klasse Round match. According to our data, there are no recent encounters between these two teams. In this match, the home advantage might have a significant influence, as Gent has notably different outcomes when playing at home compared to away.

Team analysis: Gent

The home side comes into this second round following a defeat in their opener against Sint-Truiden (3-1). Interestingly, Gent has been more successful away than on home soil, with their last 30 matches showing 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses as visitors, compared to 4 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses at home. In their last 10 home matches, Gent has recorded just 2 wins, 1 draw, and 7 losses. Defensive solidity has not been their strong suit, as they’ve conceded goals in 9 of their previous 10 matches. Goals are prevalent in their home games, with 24 of their last 28 matches featuring more than 1.5 goals. Moreover, in 15 matches, they have yet to turn around the score in the 10 instances when they conceded first.

Gent struggled against a dominant Sint-Truiden at home, suffering a disappointing 3-1 defeat. Defensive errors were apparent, and in light of a difficult start to their Jupiler Pro League campaign, it’s crucial for them to display a resilient mental attitude. Proving they can bounce back will be vital for their improvement in this match against La Louvière, where only the three points will suffice.

Team analysis: La Louvière

The visiting side arrives at the second round after a 0-2 defeat to Standard Liège. La Louvière is not significantly impacted by home advantage, with similar results whether playing at home or away; in their last 30 matches, they have recorded 7 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses as away visitors, scoring 24 goals and conceding 15. At home, they achieved 9 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses, with a total of 27 goals scored and 13 conceded. In their last 10 away games, La Louvière has secured 5 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses. While defensive robustness has not been their strength, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 matches, they have managed to score in 9 of the same matches. In 15 games, they have successfully equalised after conceding first in 2 of 6 instances.

La Louvière did not begin their Belgian elite campaign as hoped, suffering a 2-0 loss at home. A response is crucial to prevent mounting pressure. They must adopt an improved approach on the pitch. Displaying greater firmness, especially away from home, could be a crucial tactic to surprise Gent, who also faced an opening defeat.
