KV Kortrijk presents impressive home form with 83% wins and only 8% losses at their own stadium, scoring an average of 2.17 goals while conceding just 0.92 per match. The hosts occupy the second position in the table and have a +15 goal difference in home matches, confirming their dominance before their own crowd. RFC Liege, despite decent overall form (3 wins in the last 5 matches), records significantly weaker results away – only 42% wins and as many as 42% of matches without scoring, averaging just 1 goal per away game. xG statistics also speak in favor of the hosts (1.71 vs 1.12), suggesting higher quality in created chances. Given Kortrijk's advantage in every aspect of home play and RFC Liege's difficulties in away matches, we expect a victory for the hosts, although the visitors' experience and defensive solidity (42% clean sheets away) could make this a competitive encounter.
