Seraing vs Kortrijk
Belgium – Jupiler League
Date: Sunday, 31 July 2022
Kick-off at 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
Venue: Stade du Pairay.
Round Two of Belgium Jupiler League will kick-start this week as Seraing play host to Kortrijk. These two sides will be seen clashing at Stade du Pairay this Sunday in this new season.
Seraing narrowly escaped relegation from the Belgian top-flight last season. They then survived emerging from a relegation playoff to remain in the Jupiler League. They have then appointed coach Jose Jeunechamps in the summer but they struggle the same as last term when they scored a league worst 30 goals.
The hosts come into this on the back of a 2-0 defeat away to Zulte Waregem last weekend, on the opening day of the season. Fewer than three goals per match were seen in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Seraing have taken part. However, the side scored just 4 from those games.
On the other side, Kortrijk were having a disappointing run in the past First Division A campaign as they were at the 13th spot on the table by the end of the season. The side however displayed positive results in the pre-season fixtures, but much attention is needed in this regular season.
The visitors began this campaign with a defeat themselves. Kortrijk suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to OH Leuven, last week. They have seen getting scored against in all of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 14 goals in total.

Seraing vs Kortrijk Prediction
Previous matches between the two had averaged 2.67 goals while BTTS has happened 33% of the time. Seraing are on a poor home form, with the side winless in their last 6 home games. They have seen conceding an average of 2 goals in their Jupiler Pro League games.
Meanwhile, Kortrijk have a 100% winning streak over this rival. They even won the last 2 h2hs while maintaining a cleansheet. But the side just won an away game after snapping their 5-game losing run.
Both these sides have started their campaign poorly and a low-scoring encounter is expected with a possible win to the visitors being anticipated.
