Belgian Playoffs Week 10 Playoff 2B Friday Previews

These are previews from the Belgian Jupiler League Playoffs with all the latest on team news, player form, injuries along with my personal bets and betting angles, ...

We are reaching the absolute final stages of the 2018-2019 Season with week 10 and 2 more matches afterward to grant the final European ticket. I will continue betting but similar to last weeks with a very cautious approach mostly focussed on Live bets.

Current standing before the final matches in Playoff 2B

Kortrijk vs Cercle Brugge

Kortrijk has been sure to win their group for a while because Union has no European Licence. In the week these 2 teams played each other with Union winning 2-0. Kortrijk coach played without D'haene, Van Der Bruggen and Kagelmacher who are expected to be back in the team tonight. Their top striker Avenatti is still injured. I do expect them to make this match into a general practice for the playoff 2 final next Wednesday. I also expect them to conserve energy near the end of the match if they are ahead. Cercle has nothing to play for and lost their last 5 matches. The idea of finally having a vacation probably keeps the players busier compared to finishing the season with a win. My lean in this match is on the home team and the under. I haven't taken any bets yet but will probably take a tiny bit on Under 3.5 @ 1.92. The many crazy over matches from playoff 2 caused a big adjustment of the line all across the board. I see this one more like a classical end of season match. Kortrijk will be happy with a small will while Cercle probably would not mind a close loss.

Moeskroen vs Waasland

This will be the final match of the career of Moeskroen striker Leye while also likely the last match of Moeskroen coach Storck. Moeskroen has been playing better again lately and is unbeaten in their last 3 matches. Waasland players seem to be in vacation mode already losing 0-5 at home against Zulte-Waregem. They have nothing yet to play for and might be more worried about a possible relegation instead of losing this match. I'm tempted to take some on the home team and the chances of Leye scoring are quite high also (he will be the one taking the penalty if he's not on the board yet). I'm in no rush and will wait it out live to see how it all goes early on.

Zulte-Waregem vs Union

Zulte-Waregem is the most unpredictable team in these playoffs one week playing good winning 0-5 on the road but also losing 5-0 at home in a complete off match. Union has shown that they are simply a great team and played this competition with joy. Many of their players will likely be seen in the first division next season. Zulte-Waregem likely won't field their best team tonight while Union is missing important striker Tau. I'm not surprised to see the 2nd division visitors as the slight favorite. Zulte-Waregem being up for it or not is something very unpredictable so I also in this match am going to wait it out and see what the match brings...
