The Jupiler Pro League continues to deliver week in and week out, with goals and drama galore.
And after some midweek Belgian Cup action, this weekend promises to be no different, with Matchday 13 headlined by the top-of-the-table clash between pace setters Genk and Antwerp.
So, ahead of the start of play, betFIRST has taken a look at all eight fixtures and provided some betting tips for your weekend accumulator.

Genk to beat Antwerp @ 2.05
The fixture every fan of Belgian football will have their eyes on this weekend.
Genk have been quite magnificent in 2024-25, with nine wins from 12 seeing them five points clear at the top.
As such, this is a must-win game for Antwerp if they want to have hope of bridging the gap anytime soon.
Both teams are in equally superb form too with four wins from the last five. We will also see a battle between two of the Pro League’s top scorers in Tolu Arokodare and Jacob Ondrejka.
It is such a hard one to call, but we think home advantage will prove decisive in this mammoth clash, even with Antwerp’s division-leading defence (only eight goals conceded compared to Genk’s 15).
Club Brugge to beat Leuven @ 1.90
Club Brugge will be feeling very good when they head to Leuven on Matchday 13.
Last weekend’s 2-1 home triumph over Anderlecht was crucial after a slow start to the campaign.
Club Brugge have now won two on the bounce in the Pro League, while Leuven are really struggling with just three victories to their name.
Leuven’s 2-1 success at Charleroi last time out may have provided a much-needed confidence boost, but the visitors should be far too strong with the likes of Gustaf Nilsson and Hans Vanaken in their ranks.
Mechelen to beat Union Saint-Gilloise @ 3.70
Yes, we are backing the underdog in this encounter.
Hosts Mechelen are on a superb run of form, winning their last three Pro League fixtures and sitting handsomely in fourth, six places above Union SG.
Mechelen also boast the third-best goal difference in the division, behind only Genk and Antwerp.
So it is hard to look past them claiming victory over a Union SG side without a win in the Europa League and still reeling from last weekend’s shock 3-1 home defeat at the hands of Cercle Brugge.
Cercle Brugge to beat Charleroi @ 2.50
Speaking of Cercle Brugge, we fancy the team currently stationed in the relegation round zone to make it two wins on the bounce.
Charleroi are without a victory in five Pro League matches and have suffered three consecutive defeats.
Cercle Brugge have the tools to make that four in a row, particularly with the home crowd cheering them on.
If the hosts do so on Sunday afternoon, they will leapfrog Charleroi in the table.
