Preview

Match preview

St. Truiden welcome KVC Westerlo to stay ahead in the Jupiler Pro League mid-table scrap, with just one point separating tenth-placed Truiden from thirteenth-placed Westerlo after six rounds. The hosts have experienced a mixed opening run of two wins, two draws, and two losses, scoring 12 times and conceding 10. Key forward S. Bazdar has already registered four goals, supported by R. Merlen with three goals and three assists.

KVC Westerlo arrive following consecutive league victories, having beaten Standard Liege 4-2 at home and KV Mechelen 4-0 on the road. However, their defense remains a vulnerability, having conceded 16 goals in six league fixtures, an average of 2.7 goals against per match. With S. Saito scoring three goals and C. Congreve supplying three assists, Westerlo carry offensive threat but frequently engage in open, high-scoring affairs.

Historical meetings heavily favor St. Truiden, who have won six of the last ten clashes between the sides, suffering only one defeat. When hosting Westerlo, St. Truiden have claimed three victories out of four recorded home meetings in the sample, including a 4-0 away triumph in their most recent encounter in February 2026.
