We said: Mechelen 1-1 Gent

 Both sides started their seasons with positive results last weekend, with Mechelen holding one of the title favourites away from home, and Gent getting off to a winning start as they would have expected in front of their home fans. Although the visitors will almost certainly end up finishing higher in the table than their forthcoming opponents by the end of the campaign, we can envisage them being happy to take a point home with them on Sunday.
