Player to watch: Colin Coosemans
Colin Coosemans put in a man-of-the-match performance in the reverse fixture, making four fine saves, including a penalty. The former Gent shot-stopper did not concede a single goal in his last three First Division A appearances. It will be interesting to see if he can extend his run of clean sheets this weekend.
