Competition: Belgian Pro League

Date: May 20, 2026

Kick-off: 19:45 UK / 02:45 Beijing Time (next day)

Venue: Stade du Pays de Charleroi

Charleroi Preview

Charleroi enter this fixture hoping to continue their strong late-season momentum after several disciplined performances helped strengthen their position in the Belgian Pro League standings, with the hosts increasingly relying on defensive organisation and quick attacking transitions to control difficult matches, while home support at Stade du Pays de Charleroi has continued to provide an important advantage during emotionally tense encounters against direct rivals.

Leuven Preview

Leuven arrive still searching for greater consistency following an unpredictable campaign that has frequently combined encouraging attacking spells with defensive instability, though the visitors remain capable of creating dangerous moments through direct transitions and wide attacking play, particularly when opponents commit aggressively forward and leave space exposed behind the defensive line.

We Say

This matchup feels likely to become a competitive and physically demanding contest because both sides remain more comfortable attacking in transition than controlling long periods of possession, and while Charleroi may hold a slight advantage through stronger recent momentum and home intensity, Leuven’s willingness to attack directly could still ensure an open encounter with chances at both ends.
