Antwerp vs St. Truiden Prediction: The home team will not disappoint

Bosuilstadion will host the Jupiler Pro League encounter between Antwerp and St. Truiden. Let's preview this game and make a prediction. 

Antwerp

Antwerp started their season campaign with a 0-1 win over Charleroi, and against Anderlecht last weekend, they bowed to a 1-2 defeat. In what was a home game, Senne Lammen's goal put Anderlecht in the lead just 25 minutes into the match. While Gyrano Kerk did level the score for Antwerp in the 34th minute, an 80th-minute strike by Majeed Ashimeru handed this team a defeat. Heading into this game, Antwerp have just one win in the last five games. 

St. Truiden

St. Truiden started the season with consecutive defeats and will have to be at the top level to secure a win here. In their opener, this team lost to Anderlecht and then struggled against Charleroi in game 2. In those matches, this team conceded five goals while scoring one. Heading into this game, St. Truiden has zero wins in five consecutive matches, with a draw being the best result in that run. 

Expert Betting Tips

St. Truiden are not a side to trust, considering how poor they were in the season's first two games. Antwerp might have lost last weekend, but it was against a tough opponent. At home, I expect Antwerp to avoid consecutive defeats, and with a good record in this fixture, I am backing them to win with ease.
