Match Prediction: Zulte-Waregem 2-1 La Louvière
Zulte-Waregem come into this match with a spring in their step, having recently dispatched La Louvière 2-0 away.

La Louvière, on the other hand, are in a bit of a rut, struggling to find the back of the net in recent outings. They’ll need to tighten up defensively and hope to catch Zulte-Waregem on the break. With Fall and Afriyie up front, they have the potential to cause problems if they can get the service. However, given their current form, it might be a tough ask to turn things around here.La Louvière, on the other hand, are in a bit of a rut, struggling to find the back of the net in recent outings.
