Jupiler Pro League 2025/26: Matchday 17 Predictions
*All odds are subject to change
Union Saint-Gilloise vs KAA Gent: USG to score over 2.5 goals @ 1.60
USG approach this match as the strongest attacking side in the league, led by the explosive duo of Raul Florucz and Kevin Rodríguez. However, David Hubert’s team are coming off a damaging defeat against Anderlecht (1–0), who are another title contender.
Meanwhile, Gent sit 7th in the standings and continue to struggle with defensive consistency away from home. In a fiery Joseph Marien Stadium, USG will be eager to bounce back in style — and another efficient attacking display is highly likely.
Draw between Sint-Truiden and Club Brugge @ 3.40
Club Brugge still boasts one of the strongest squads in the league, powered by Greek star Christos Tzolis, who has already scored five Pro League goals this season. But their recent home defeat to Royal Antwerp may have left its mark, and cost them precious points!
Sint-Truiden, driven by the Japanese duo Ito and Goto, are in excellent form after two away wins against Gent and OH Leuven. With disciplined pressing and a rigid defensive structure, STVV are well equipped to hold Club Brugge to a draw.
Mechelen to beat Charleroi @ 4.00
Mechelen, sitting 5th with 24 points on the board, are enjoying a solid season — especially at home, where they continue to collect important results and points.
Frédéric Vanderbiest’s men offer attractive, attacking football that should once again pay off against Charleroi, whose defence has conceded 21 goals so far.
Given their clear momentum and the weaknesses of the Zebras, Mechelen have a real opportunity to claim another victory and edge closer to the coveted Top 3 positions.
Anderlecht to win at Westerlo @ 2.20
Boosted by their recent win over the defending champions, Anderlecht remain firmly in the race for a top-four finish. Thorgan Hazard is in excellent form, while Mihajlo Cvetkovic continues to impress.
The Brussels side’s improved pressing, fluid build-up play, and renewed confidence make them strong favourites here. Westerlo, despite some encouraging performances, lack efficiency and concede too many goals. Under these conditions, an Anderlecht win looks very likely.
