Hugo Cuypers (67′) was the sole name on the KAA Gent scoresheet. Eduardo Guerrero scored for Zorya Luhansk in the 70th minute.
KAA Gent hasn’t preserved a clean sheet too frequently in their last games. Let in ten goals in their last six games, KAA Gent have really conceded six goals against. In spite of that, we’ll just have to watch to see if the pattern continues in this game.
Eupen and their traveling supporters will be hoping for a better outcome after losing to Standard Liège in their previous First Division A match.
Eupen had 44% of the possession in that game and only one of their 13 total attempts on goal were on target. Eupen’s Alfreð Finnbogason scored in the 80′.
Three of Standard Liège’s 16 total shots on goal were on target in the opposing end. Standard Liège’s goals came from Wilfried Kanga (45′), Hayao Kawabe (45′), and Kamal Sowah (75′).
The numbers speak for themselves: in five of their last six games, Eupen has allowed goals, allowing opponents to score 11 goals in total. Evidently, Eupen has experienced some issues at the back.
Prior to this encounter, Eupen had not defeated KAA Gent in any of the previous six league road games. Not favorable.
