Six more matchdays and we will know the champion in the Jupiler Pro League. In the Champions’ Play-off it seems to be a battle between four teams. Although Royal Antwerp FC does not want to give up yet.

Last season, Antwerp came back from a beaten position in the play-offs and ultimately managed to win the title on the final match day after an unlikely scenario with a late goal from Toby Alderweireld.

This season seems to be going to be very difficult. With six matchdays to go, the gap between Antwerp and leader Anderlecht is no less than nine points. And so things should get very crazy for The Great Old.

An 18 out of 18 seems necessary for Antwerp and then things have to go well in the other matches to really be able to dream of the title. Yet Mark van Bommel continues to believe in it, as evident from his press conference before the match against Union SG.

Antwerp title dreams are not over yet

“Imagine – I now throw something very strange on the table: Anderlecht and Cercle draw twice, just like Club and Genk, while we win twice. Then we get to 35 points and the first one has a maximum of forty,” said van Bommel The newspapaer.

“Will we still win the title? Crazier things have happened in the play-offs. It is also alive in the dressing room, they also see the many changes in the score. We want to win against Union and they must also win, there will be such always contain venom.”
