11/08/2024 5:00 pm
Royal Antwerp will play host to Sint-Truiden at Bosuilstadion in the Belgian Pro League on Sunday in each side’s third game of the league campaign.
The hosts are currently occupying 10th position with three points and a goal difference of zero, while the visitors are last in 16th place with a minus four goal difference.
Royal Antwerp suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat last time out on August 4 against Anderlecht in a game that was a remarkably open contest.
Jonas De Roeck’s side had 29 shots with just 42% possession and managed to generate well over two xG, while Anderlecht had 10 shots, four of which were on target.
In their narrow 1-0 victory over Sporting Charleroi in their first league game on July 28, they produced 12 shots, eight of which came from inside their opponents’ penalty area.
De Roeck has only been in charge for two competitive matches, and in his previous role at Westerlo, he guided the club into the top flight from the Belgian second division in 2021-22.
Royal Antwerp have only posted one victory at home in the last seven league matches and have lost five of those games.
Opponents Sint-Truiden suffered a 4-1 defeat last time out on August 3 against Sporting Charleroi and were trailing by four goals at halftime.
Sint-Truidenn lost their first game of the league campaign against Anderlecht on July 27, a game in which they conceded 11 shots and only produced two of their own.
Christian Lattanzio’s side enter the contest in poor league form, as while they lost their first two games of the top-flight campaign, they also won just once in the last eight matches of the 2023-24 season.

Antwerp Team News
Royal Antwerp will almost certainly be without the services of Bjorn Engels, who has not featured for the club since October 25.
Gyrano Kerk came in at right-wing, while Tjaronn Chery played in a more central position in the forward line during the game against Anderlecht, and both could start once again.

Sint-Truiden Team News
Given they lost 4-1 last time out against Sporting Charleroi, Lattanzio could look to bring centre-back David Mindombe into the starting lineup.
Alouis Diriken could also come back into the Sint-Truiden starting XI in place of Ryotaro Ito.
