Antwerp Insights.

Antwerp are Group J’s surprise package so far, and are chasing a third win out of three UEFA Europa League (UEL) matches. They’ve scored the opening goal in each of their previous three UEL home matches, with two of those three openers arriving before the 31st minute. Beyond a great start in Europe, Antwerp are currently without defeat in 19 home league matches stretching back to May 2019 (W13, D6). They’ve scored 2+ goals in each of their previous three home league matches, and have also secured a half-time lead in three of their previous four such fixtures.

LASK Insights.

LASK have won only one of their previous six away fixtures in the UEL proper (W1, D2, L3). Furthermore, including qualifiers, they’ve also conceded at least one goal after the 60th minute in each of their previous four UEL away matches. They also conceded twice in this period in their last European visit to Belgium – a 2-1 defeat to Club Brugge (Aug 2019). Despite making an indifferent start to the UEL group stage (W1, L1), LASK have enjoyed some strong recent form. They have secured four wins across their previous five matches (W4, L1), netting 3+ goals in three of those victories. Additionally, their opponents registered under 4.5 shots on target in each of one of those wins.
