Westerlo vs Antwerp H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

Westerlo were up against Antwerp in the First Division A of Belgium on August 30. The game ended 2-0 in Westerlo's favor.

On the 28th minute, Isa Sakamoto netted the first goal of the match, putting Westerlo ahead. This was followed by a goal from Arthur Piedfort, concluding at 2-0.

As Westerlo and Antwerp prepare to meet again, the memory of Westerlo's 3-2 win in their First Division A encounter from 8 months ago still lingers. Westerlo's recent form has been disappointing, with consecutive defeats to Cercle Brugge and Mechelen. A more organized backline could be the foundation for success, since their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in twelve consecutive matches.

Antwerp, on the other hand, enter the match on a positive note, having secured a victory over Mechelen in their last outing, pushing their unbeaten streak to seven games. Despite this, their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last five matches.

This Belgian Pro League clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Westerlo and Antwerp. Westerlo’s top finisher Josimar Alcocer and Isa Sakamoto have played important roles in ensuring their attack, crafted under Issame Charai’s leadership, remains effective. Alcocer has already scored two goals in Belgian Pro League this season, and has also shown his creativity, leading the team with three assists this campaign. Westerlo have also relied on Kyan Vaesen, Emin Bayram and Matija Frigan to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Antwerp’s offensive unit, carefully orchestrated by Stef Wils, has leaned on Vincent Janssen, their main scorer, and Mahamadou Doumbia, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. With two goals in Belgian Pro League, Janssen is Antwerp’s top scorer in the league, with Foulon topping their assist tally in the competition with two. Antwerp’s attacking depth is further showcased by Farouck Adekami, Michel Ange Balikwisha and Thibo Somers, who have each made valuable contributions this season.
