Mouscron – Zulte Waregem (23 Dec 2017)

Royal Excel Mouscron
The team makes a decent season because after 19 games it has accumulated 23 points and is on the 10th place. It scored 25 goals and received 31.
Home played well and in 10 matches he managed to accumulate 15 points. He scored 18 goals and received 20 goals.
The form of the moment is not good because in the last 5 games the champion has 4 goals scored and 7 received.
It is a team that fails to avoid fixed-pitch gaps because it gives opponents an average of 9.33 corners per game.

Zulte Waregem
The team makes a weak season because in 19 matches managed to get only 20 points and is on the 12th place. He scored 30 goals and received 34.
He played quite well for the moment, because he scored 10 points in 9 matches played. He scored 17 goals and received 16 goals.
With a permissive defense of opponents, I think Zulte will be able to dominate the game in the opposing half and thus make many blows from the corner of the court.
The form of the moment is disappointing because in the last 5 championship games it has 4 defeats and one draw, being the weakest team in this chapter.

Direct meetings
The two teams met seven times and Zulte Waregem dominated with 5 wins, but in general they were spectacular matches. In 2017 they already played twice and Waregem won both matches with 1-0 and 2-1, both matches being on their own.
My tip: Mouscron vs Waregem
I’m expecting a fairly balanced match because there are two teams in the clasament.
I think there will be many times and many sutures from both bands and that’s why there will be many fixed phases.
Moreover, Mouscron is the team that gives the opponents the most corners in the championship, namely 9.33 on average.
I think there are a lot of chances to see many corners in this game because both bands are out of shape and most likely a fixed phase will make a difference.
