KV Mechelen – St. Truiden

KV Mechelen host a struggling St. Truiden in what promises to be a decisive encounter for both sides. The home side sit 16th with just two points from six games, having failed to win and scoring only five goals while conceding 14. Truiden, occupying the 10th spot, arrive on four points from their last four matches, boasting two victories and a modest +2 goal difference. A point for Mechelen could be crucial in the battle to avoid the drop, whereas a win would lift Truiden back into the mid‑table scramble. The clash will likely hinge on whether the beleaguered hosts can tighten up at the back against a side that has shown resilience in recent draws.
