On Sunday, March 19, Royal Antwerp and Sporting Charleroi will compete for three points in a Belgian Jupiler League matchday 30 matches. The hosts are coming off a routine victory against Seraing, which they won 2-0. After Seraing was reduced to ten men, Vincent Janssen and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp scored in the first half to give the visitors all three points.
In contrast, Sporting lost 1-0 at home to Leuven thanks to a goal by Mousa Al-Tamari in the 16th minute. They had 38 points from 28 games going into the loss, putting them 11th in the standings. Antwerp, on the other hand, finished their 29 games in third place with 60 points to show for their efforts.

The Reds will want to keep their title charge alive by scoring as many points as possible against Antwerp, who are unlikely title contenders. The strong home record of Mark van Bommel’s team has been the primary impetus behind their title challenge, which may come to the fore this weekend.
Sporting, on the other hand, have little to play for this season and are content to be in the middle of the table. After losing their five-game winning streak last weekend, they will be eager to get back on track with a win. However, Antwerp ought to secure a comfortable victory and keep a clean sheet.
