Ten-man Beveren fall to Roche strike as Kortrijk end losing run
Kortrijk claimed a 1-0 win over SK Beveren in a Jupiler Pro League round 7 fixture at Guldensporen Stadion, snapping a run of defeats and lifting them off the bottom of the table on the day, even if they remained 18th in the standings.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
The contest turned in the first half when Beveren's Johannes Schenk was sent off in the 32nd minute, leaving the visitors to play the remainder of the match a man short. Kortrijk went in level at the break despite the numerical advantage, but broke through seven minutes into the second half through Jamie Roche, whose finish proved decisive.
With an extra man for almost an hour, Kortrijk dominated territory and chances, registering far more efforts on goal than Beveren and forcing more saves, while also conceding a heavy tally of fouls as they pressed for a second. Beveren, missing a man and unable to build sustained pressure, managed only a handful of shots in reply and could not find an equaliser.
Jamie Roche scored the only goal of the match, striking in the 52nd minute, and was rated the top performer on the pitch with an 8.2 rating.
Kortrijk out-shot Beveren 20 to 7 despite having less of the ball, reflecting how the extra man shaped the second-half play.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Kortrijk 46%, the draw 26%, SK Beveren 28%. It finished Kortrijk 1–0 SK Beveren.
Level sides, only home ground separates them — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Kortrijk's 46% is home ground and little else. The draw at 26% is what level sides usually produce.
Why Kortrijk in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1477 to 1471. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,695 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%).
Why only 46%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 26% and SK Beveren at 28%.
Why the draw at 26%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.9 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,162.
What did we measure but not count?
SK Beveren have gained 125 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 41.4% of 12,419 such games vs 40.6% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Kortrijk are newly promoted — game 7 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides ran below their rating in nine of the last ten seasons — 26.5% wins in their first ten games where the rating expected 30.0% (2,793 games since 2012), fading but still visible through game nineteen. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
