Mechelen vs Gent Preview

Mechelen continued their unbeaten streak with a 1-0 victory over Westerlo last weekend. The hosts also recorded their first clean sheet of the season in that match and will look to build on this momentum, backed by their three-game unbeaten run (1W, 2D) on the road.

Defensively, Mechelen have conceded the fewest goals (2) in the Pro League so far, level with St. Truidense and Standard Liège.

Meanwhile, Gent enter this fixture on the back of a 3-2 defeat to Union Saint-Gilloise. The visitors were chasing the game for most of the contest but attempted a late comeback, scoring twice in the final 15 minutes.

Gent will be eager to return to winning ways as they continue to search for stability in the early stages of the season. They are unbeaten against Mechelen in four matches (3W, 1D) and will aim to extend this run.

How Many Goals Can Be Expected?

We expect a high-scoring contest because the last head-to-head meetings between these two sides averaged 4.2 goals per game, while Mechelen’s last seven matches averaged 3.7 goals per game. Therefore, over 3.5 goals appears a likely outcome.

Which Players Could Score?

We expect Benito Raman to score anytime, as the Mechelen forward has netted four goals in his last four appearances for the club. His form could prove decisive in determining the outcome of this clash.

Mechelen vs Gent Prediction

Mechelen head into this game unbeaten in three matches and with the joint-best defensive record in the Pro League, conceding just twice so far. Gent, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from a 3-2 loss to Union Saint-Gilloise and remain unbeaten in their last four meetings with Mechelen.

A high-scoring match is expected, with recent encounters and both sides’ form pointing to over 3.5 goals. Benito Raman is a likely scorer for Mechelen, having netted four times in his last four games.
