OH Leuven host KVC Westerlo in what promises to be a crucial clash for both sides in the lower half of the table.

Westerlo, meanwhile, occupy 13th place, having collected seven points after two victories, one draw and three losses, but they are still struggling defensively, having let in 16 goals while scoring 13.
