K. Lierse are going through a rough patch right now. They have lost three of their last five games and only managed two draws, so they are not in good form at home. AS Eupen, on the other hand, are playing much better, having won three of their last five matches. That makes Eupen the team in better shape going into this game.

When these two teams have met recently, the games have generally been close and not packed with goals, with most results decided by a single goal. Both sides score relatively little, so this looks like a tight, low-scoring match that could go either way. Given Eupen's stronger recent form, they look the more likely to come out on top, though a draw is also very possible.
