Oud-Heverlee Leuven have been one of the toughest sides in the league this season but their inconsistencies and struggles in many games have let them down many times. After finishing the regular season with 37 points, which saw them fail to play in the championship group, this team now has to fight for a place in the Europa League, which has not been an easy road for them since the latter part of March. However, their downfall can easily be attributed to their losing run in January, which saw them lose to Club Brugge KV, Genk, and Union Saint-Gilloise, which are the top three sides in the league.
The previous weekend, this team played KV Mechelen in this group and they settled for a 1-1 draw. In that contest, Oud-Heverlee Leuven needed a Siebe Schrijvers strike in the 20th minute to level the team after they had gone behind three minutes earlier, thanks to a subtle pass from Ayumu Ohata.
In the meantime, Oud-Heverlee Leuven head into this game having failed to win in the Conference League Group. This team have now gone unbeaten in their last four league matches. This team picked up a win in that run against St. Truiden. In other encounters, Oud-Heverlee Leuven drew Westerlo and Charleroi.
Oud-Heverlee Leuven Lineup

Dender: Form and Statistics
Dender coach Vincent Euvrard will be happy with how impressive his side has been all season and will now be hopeful for a spot in Europe next season, which is not impossible. Since their qualification from League Two, this team has done well to keep up with their status, having avoided relegation already. In the meantime, this team has been solid in this fixture and will hope for a win despite playing away from home. Last weekend, Dender were at home against Standard Liège and did well to take a point at least despite not being the better side in that game. Thanks to Mohamed Berte's strike, this team did well to avoid defeat. Ahead of this game, Vincent Euvrard’s team has won only one of their last eight matches, coming against Westerlo in a 1-0 contest.
Dender Lineup
Nathan Rodes will miss this game after his fifth yellow card against Standard Liege the preview weekend. However, Vincent Euvrard will have Ragnar Oratmangoen back in the squad after an infection that kept him out of the squad list last weekend. Tom Holmes, Michael Lallemand and Karol Fila will, however, be the players who will not be available yet for this game.
🔖 Oud-Heverlee Leuven’s’ Predicted XI (3-4-1-2):

Oud-Heverlee Leuven vs Dender Match Prediction 19 April 2025
The two teams have what it takes to win this game, but being honest, Oud-Heverlee Leuven are clearly ahead. While Dender will look to avoid a defeat in this fixture, their poor defensive record and away record will be what they should deal with. With how their past performances have ended, I believe the two teams will be able to score. Yet, I believe Oud-Heverlee Leuven will do well to extend their unbeaten run at home as they eye their first win in the Conference League playoff group.
Our match prediction is a win for Oud-Heverlee Leuven with odds at 2.03 on 1Xbet.
Our betting tip is both teams to score with odds at 1.80 on Bet365.
