On the 6th of August, Kortrijk and Sint-Truiden will play a match in Kortrijk in a meeting of these two Pro League teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 20 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, Kortrijk recorded a 1-0 shutout win against RFC Seraing. Shuto Abe scored the first goal for Kortrijk in the 58th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, RFC Seraing was frustrated by Kortrijk’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Kortrijk ended the match with the shutout victory. Kortrijk is looking for direction having 1 win and 1 losses in their last 10 matches, while sint-Truiden sits at 15th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-1 draw against Gent. Hugo Cuypers struck first for Gent in the 12th minute, then Daichi Hayashi tied it up for Sint-Truiden in the 83rd minute on a feed from Stan Van Dessel squeezing out at least the one point for Sint-Truiden. Sint-Truiden looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 0 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Daichi Hayashi has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, the attacker has scored four goals for Sint-Truiden. Kortrijk is having problems scoring lately. Their top scorers, Bryan Reynolds and Trent Sainsbury each only have 1 goal in their last 5.
