Match preview
Lommel United host KVC Westerlo in round three of the Jupiler Pro League, with both sides looking to secure their first league victory of the campaign. Lommel currently sit 13th in the table with one point from two matches, having drawn 1-1 away at St. Truiden before suffering a 1-0 home defeat against Charleroi.
KVC Westerlo enter this encounter in 16th position after back-to-back defeats to open their season. While their attack has shown threat by scoring three goals across games against Union St. Gilloise (1-5) and Genk (2-3), their defence has been severely breached, conceding eight goals in two fixtures.
