Westerlo's big rating edge makes this one-sided — We give KVC Westerlo 78% mainly because they sit 209 points higher on our strength rating, 1548 to 1339, and the cup tie across divisions adds to that edge over Patro Eisden. The draw starts at 19% for a gap this size but falls to 15%, lowered by the cup-tie setting and both sides' high-scoring recent games, averaging 3.9 goals.
