Antwerp vs Lommel United: prediction, odds and betting tip – 7 November 2026, Jupiler Pro League

Antwerp vs Lommel United preview and prediction

Deurne is the venue when Antwerp welcome Lommel United on 7 November 2026, and the visitors hold the higher position in the Jupiler Pro League table. Lommel are seventh on 15 points, whereas Antwerp sit 11th with 10, a five-point gap after ten games apiece. The clash kicks off at 19:45 at the Bosuilstadion in Matchweek 11. Betting markets point to a different outcome from the table, and our pick follows that line, albeit cautiously.

Lommel's steadier record against Antwerp's leaky defence

On the road, Lommel have collected 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in this competition, netting 7 goals while letting in 9. In this competition only, they have won 4, drawn 3 and lost 3, scoring 13 and conceding 11. That works out to 1.1 goals conceded per match.

Antwerp have a harder time at the back. They have 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats, with 16 goals scored and 22 conceded, which is 2.2 per match. At home they are 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, with 10 scored and 11 conceded. Those are not disastrous figures for a side of their quality, but they are not the record of a team that keeps games under control.

Form across every competition, not just this table

The standings only tell part of the story, so the broader form is worth a look. Across every competition, Antwerp have taken just one win from their last five outings, suffering four defeats, with 6 goals scored and 12 conceded. Their latest match was a 1-2 defeat away at Cercle Brugge on 1 November, and before that they ran out 3-0 winners at home to Charleroi on 24 October. Both sides found the net in three of those five games, and more than 2.5 goals were scored in four of them.

Lommel's last five in all competitions bring 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat, with 7 scored and 8 conceded. They beat Gent 2-0 at home on 1 November, and they drew 2-2 at OH Leuven on 24 October. Both teams scored in two of those five.

Four meetings that lean slightly toward Antwerp

Antwerp hold the edge in head-to-head history. Across their last four clashes they picked up two wins, one draw and one defeat, scoring 6 and conceding 4. Their 1-0 victory on 26 February 2017 was the latest of these, while the 4-2 win at Lommel on 16 December 2016 was the most productive. Four matches is a thin base, so we would not rely on it by itself, yet it leans slightly in the home side's favour.

No absences reported on either side

With no reported absences for either Antwerp or Lommel, both coaches can field their best available players. The lineups offer no clear edge, so the result will come down to recent form and the statistics.

What the bookmakers expect from this match

Model expectations put Antwerp's goal output at 2 and Lommel United's at 1, roughly 3 goals combined. Bookmakers price Antwerp at a 50% chance to win, with best odds of 1.91, while the draw sits at 25% (best odds 3.95) and a Lommel win at 25% (best odds 3.93). The margin on the match result is 8.0%. The most probable exact scores are 1-1 at 10.3%, 2-1 at 9.5% and 1-0 at 7.9%, so no single outcome clearly stands out.

On the goals lines, over 2.5 is priced at 62% (best odds 1.55) and under 2.5 at 38% (best odds 2.53). Over 3.5 sits at 42% (best odds 2.35) and under 3.5 at 58% (best odds 1.64). Both teams to score is 63% at best odds 1.50. On the handicap, Antwerp -0.5 is at 52% with best odds 1.88, and Antwerp -1 at 38% with best odds 2.50. These are the market's views, and they are not a record of past matches.

Our Antwerp vs Lommel United betting tip: Antwerp -0.5

Antwerp -0.5 (Asian handicap) is our top pick, priced at 1.88 with a 52% chance. Because the line is -0.5, Antwerp has to win by at least 1 goal: any draw or defeat means the bet is lost. Winning results are 2-1, 1-0 and 2-0, while 1-1, 1-2 and 2-2 all lose.

Our case rests on three points. At home in this competition, Antwerp have collected 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, while in the last 4 head-to-heads with Lommel they have taken 2 victories against Lommel's 1. Bookmakers price them at 52% with the best available odds of 1.88. This is far from a safe selection: a 1-1 scoreline is among the most probable outcomes, and one draw would be enough to sink the bet.

A second tip for those who want one bet

Our second pick is both teams to score at 1.50 odds (63% chance). It lands on 1-1, 2-1, 1-2 and 2-2, and it fails on 1-0 and 2-0.

Antwerp have had both teams find the net in 3 of their last 5 matches, while they went without a goal in just 1 of them. Projections point to roughly 3 goals in total, and bookmakers price this outcome at 63% with the best odds at 1.50. The payout is small because the odds are low, yet for a single selection this is the safer pick.

Alternative selections worth a look

For a more cautious option, Antwerp or draw (1X) at 1.28 (75% chance) also covers a 1-1 scoreline that would beat our lead selection, and it still cashes if Antwerp take the win. Because the price is slim, a modest stake suits it better than a heavy one. On goals, under 3.5 at 1.64 (58% chance) lines up with a projected total near 3 goals, and we would back it ahead of over 2.5 at 1.55. Antwerp +0 at 1.40 (67% chance) is another route: if the match ends level, the stake is refunded, so it protects against a stalemate while still profiting if Antwerp win outright.

Where we land before kick-off

Antwerp are our pick to back on the result, and the odds makers share that view. The handicap, however, demands more: Antwerp must win by a goal rather than simply winning. Should the match finish level, our primary tip falls while the secondary tip comes good, so it ultimately depends on which of the two outcomes you judge more probable. For a steadier route, we would lean towards the 1X or the under 3.5.
