Comparative Team Statistics: St. Truiden vs OH Leuven

St Truiden have had the edge lately

These two have met plenty of times down the years, with results going both ways across more than a decade of fixtures. The last two meetings, though, both went to St Truiden, including a narrow home win back in January.

That's a small sample on its own, but it lines up with how each side has been playing more recently.

Where they sit in the table

St Truiden are 12th with eight points from eight games, having scored 15 and conceded 16. OH Leuven are three points and three places further back in 15th, with just six goals scored in the same number of matches.

It's not a huge gap, but Leuven's struggles in front of goal stand out even in a small sample.

Leuven's low goal tally is the standout number here, not just their position.

Players to watch

S. Baždar has four goals in just five appearances for St Truiden, with R. Merlen also chipping in with goals and assists. Between them they cover a decent share of the home side's attacking threat.

On the disciplinary side, Leuven's W. George and Óscar Gil have both picked up a couple of yellow cards each, and A. Traoré has already seen red once in six matches.

A tight, low-scoring edge for the home side

Put the pieces together and this looks like a match where St Truiden should have the better chances, given their standing, their scoring spread and recent head-to-head wins. Leuven's struggle to score regularly is the clearest thread running through their season so far.

It doesn't point to a landslide, though. St Truiden have lost plenty of matches too across all competitions, and Leuven have shown in bursts they can find the net.
