Kortrijk – Charleroi

Charleroi turned a hostile trip to Kortrijk into a convincing 3‑1 victory, widening the gap to the league leaders while the hosts remain rooted at the bottom. The visitors, sitting fourth with 15 points from five wins and a single loss, improved their goal difference to +7 (12‑5) and kept their unbeaten run against Kortrijk intact, having won the only previous encounter this season. Kortrijk, languishing in 18th place with zero points after six defeats and a dismal –14 goal difference (1‑15), were unable to stem the tide despite the solitary goal. The three‑goal swing not only cements Charleroi’s push for European spots but also deepens the relegation battle for the home side, who now face an uphill climb with only a handful of matches left.
