About this match

**FCV Dender is on a tear and Club NXT U23 is leaking goals** — this Belgian second-tier clash has a clear front-runner. 🔥

Dender's five-game clean-sheet streak is genuinely elite form. Meanwhile, Club NXT U23 has conceded 8 times in their last three outings (including a chaotic 4-4 at RFC Liège), so they'll need tight defending against a team that's barely put a foot wrong.

Key storylines:

- **Dender's defense** has been the difference — three wins on the bounce without conceding, with **J. Devriendt** anchoring a back three that's suffocating opponents
- **Club NXT U23's leaky backline** faces a stern test after allowing 4 to RFC Liège; **D. Odoi** and **S. G. v. Hoogen** have work to do
- **G. Vandeplas** leading the Dender attack will be looking to punish any slack from a defense that's been in freefall lately

Expected lineups:

- **FCV Dender**: J. Devriendt, M. Expérience, K. Cools, M. Sambu, N. Rodes, K. Kotoń, P. Kestens, G. Vandeplas
- **Club NXT U23**: A. D. Corte, A. Wins, M. Elbay, D. Odoi, N. Amengai, J. P. D. Silva, M. Robberechts, J. V. Britsom

Prediction:

**Dender 2-0 Club NXT U23**

The momentum and defensive solidity edge heavily toward the hosts.
