Teams each aiming for their goals using their strengths.

Curiosity about previous games

The two teams had very different results in their previous games. While Mechelen thrashed in a game that was not expected to be so easy, against Kortrijk, Dender drew in a match against Cercle Brugge. Let's see how this previous result can interfere with the morale of the teams for this game.

Dender analysis

The goal difference is not positive for Dender: at the end of the round 11 it registers 14 goals scored against 15 taken by its goalkeeper.

Dender, with a ball possession of 41.82% per game on average, is not the team that imposes its game, and rather prefers a tactic devoted to waiting and counterattacks. However, in the match against Mechelen of 2024/2025 they will have to do something more, try to maintain possession of the ball and attack the opponent's goal with more continuity.

One of the team's signings for the season still seems to be in a slow pace of adaptation. David Hrnčár played another underwhelming game in the club's last appearance, against Cercle Brugge. He failed to show the expected security and did not help Dender to come out with the victory.
