Jupiler Pro League 23/24: Matchday 5 Preview

Jupiler Pro League

The Jupiler Pro League campaign is shaping up nicely with pre-season favourites Club Brugge proving value for money in the football odds. There is yet another exciting set of fixtures this weekend as the league table begins to settle.

At Bet777.be, and plenty of other online sportsbooks, you can enjoy a whole host of sports betting markets on all of the most events.

Westerlo vs KV Mechelen

Westerlo have had a poor start to the season, losing three of their opening Jupiler Pro League games. However, it’s worth noting they have faced Club Brugge, Gent, and Anderlecht in the opening four weekends – not exactly an easy start! This has worked in the favour of those looking to back them this weekend, with the hosts priced at a very tempting 2.10.

Mechelen were 4-0 victors in their last outing against Union Saint-Gilloise, but that was a bit of a freak result. They were incredibly lethal in front of goal, far exceeding their expected goals, a trend that is unlikely to continue. We’re expecting an open and attacking game here, something that plays perfectly into the hands of Westerlo.

Westerlo win – 2.10

St. Truiden vs Cercle Brugge

St. Truiden have enjoyed a decent start to their Jupiler Pro League campaign, beating Kotrijk, losing narrowly to Anderlecht, and drawing with a good Gent side. St. Truiden are never easy opposition, especially away from home, and Cercle Brugge will be hoping they can build on their 1-0 win over Standard Liege to climb the table.

The visitors have already faced Antwerp and Genk this season, losing 1-0 in both. This highlights how consistently strong a side they are, with three points away from home on matchday 5 not beyond the realms of possibility. It should be a tight affair, one that probably doesn’t feature too many goals. Under 2.5 and under 1.5 goals could be promising markets to target, but we like the look of a draw, either 0-0 or 1-1.

Draw – 3.36

Anderlecht vs Charleroi

Anderlecht have finally had something to cheer, winning three of their opening four fixtures, including a victory over champions Antwerp. After the dismal end to last season, Anderlecht look to be steadily heading back toward their best, led by talismanic new signing Kasper Dolberg. The Dane has netted twice in four appearances thus far and appears to be enjoying life in Belgium.

Charleroi might be staring down the barrel of a relegation battle this season. They have lost just once in their opening four, but are yet to register a victory. Away from home against an Anderlecht side brimming with momentum, it’s tough to see them collecting any points.

Anderlecht – 1.73
