Head-to-Head
- This Saturday’s game between Dender EH and Charleroi will be more of a tactical battle than a rivalry game, despite the visitors failing to win their two most recent away matches against them.
- Their 3-1 home win over Dender EH from six months ago in First Division A is the latest victory in a series of three clashes that Charleroi have won twice and Dender once.
Key Players
- Bruny Nsimba is their main threat in the attack with eight goals in 25 league appearances, and he has scored half of their last five goals.
- They rely on their controlled possession to transition play quickly and also have Parfait Guiagon, who has bagged eight league goals in 24 appearances this term, to provide a focal point in the number 10 position.
Betting Insights
- The 2.18 odds on Charleroi to win in the away game give us the impression that they are being favored for no good reason and we’ll take them at that price.
- Both Teams to Score - Yes (1.73) is our primary wager with the Over 2.5 goals priced at a slightly less attractive 1.97.
Prediction
- But a high-scoring game looks on the cards here as Charleroi will need to score a couple to take all the points and Dender have enough to get on the scoresheet at home.
- Both Teams to Score - Yes (1.73) is our preferred play, with Over 2.5 goals (1.97) as a secondary option.
