Charleroi, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Charleroi players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-0 away defeat at the hands of Eupen. They came away from that fixture with 63% of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 5 on target. By comparison, Eupen managed 8 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
Manager Felice Mazzù will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 9 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Stade du Pays de Charleroi.
They have been performing well at Stade du Pays de Charleroi recently and are unbeaten in their last 8 home games.
Marco Ilaimaharitra will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Charleroi.
Gent, Recent FormGent will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-1 home win against Standard Liège. They achieved 54% possession in that match and had 17 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Standard Liège's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
Manager Hein Vanhaezebrouck will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 6 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Gent will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement. They've had a decent start to the season being unbeaten in 11 of their 12 league games.
Hugo Cuypers will be hoping to create problems for Charleroi in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Gent.
It was a 0-0 draw last time these two met, so not one to look back on fondly, with both sides taking away just a single point for their troubles.

With only Laurent Depoitre (Achilles tendon) and Paul Nardi (Concussion) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Hein Vanhaezebrouck will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
