Oud-Heverlee Leuven vs KVC Westerlo Prediction 16 May 2025
The two teams are showing some level of strong performances but it is clear they are now playing for pride. While neither team is going to make the relegation, I do not see them focusing on defensive play, especially considering the number of goals they have conceded in recent times. However, with both teams failing to pick a win in recent times in this fixture, I think a draw is another possibility to consider. Yet, I feel Oud-Heverlee Leuven could do well to take maximum points in this one, especially their home run of performances.
