in advance, 4 p.m. 01. Strong home reputation against strong home reputation. Both KV Mechelen and Charleroi could only win once in the last 4 matches. Moreover, they also both booked that victory outside the home. No coincidence for Charleroi, which has won 8 of its 15 away games this season and collected more than 27 points in total away from home. Only Union, Club Brugge and Antwerp can present better results away from home. KV Mechelen in turn belongs to the absolute top of 1A on its own field. It collected more than 30 points in 15 home matches and is doing just as well as Racing Genk, AA Gent and Club Brugge. No team does better, not even Union and Anderlecht (29 points at home). †

BAS agrees with OHL: KV Mechelen will still receive forfait defeat
in advance, 15 hours 31. Eliminated for top 4. KV Mechelen had to lose its role in the battle for the Champions’ Play-offs in recent weeks. Against Cercle Brugge and STVV it did not go further than a draw. Moreover, there will be no catch-up match against OH Leuven. Earlier this week, the Belgian Arbitration Court for Sport awarded KV Mechelen a forfeit defeat after the Mechelen failed to attend the match in Leuven in January due to a corona outbreak. Charleroi, which has as many points as KV Mechelen, must also shift its focus to the Europe Play-offs. After all, the gap with Anderlecht, the number 4, is already more than 8 points. With only 4 games to go, that gap seems too big. KV Mechelen and Charleroi in turn have a safe margin of 7 points over Cercle, the number 9. .
