League games released
1st Division A drops back into focus now, and I’m jotting down what’s coming up—few games predictions worth analyzing over. Teams are gearing up, no grand fuss, just that quiet hum before they lock horns. Anyway, here’s the happen next. Sporting de Charleroi tangle with Standard de Liège, 06 April 2025 — two sides that don’t mess about. Anderlecht line up opposing KRC Genk at 06 April 2025, expect goals flying if they’ve got their shooting boots on.
That’s the lot laid out—enough to get your head spinning. 1st Division A doesn’t lie—if you’re leaking goals in April, you’re in trouble .
