It’s a clash of teams at opposite ends of the table in the 2026-27 Jupiler League as Charleroi bring their 100% winning record of this campaign against a win-less Mechelen on matchday three. This match on Saturday at Stade du Pays de Charleroi between the third-placed ‘Zebras’ and the 14th-placed ‘Malinois’ could go the home team's way, and our prediction also backs a Charleroi victory.

With six points from two games, Charleroi are separated from the top of the table by goal difference ahead of this matchday. Mechelen are yet to win this season (D1, L1) and are only one point above the four teams who have lost on both matchdays this campaign.

A 1-0 away win at Lommel last weekend continued Charleroi’s winning start to the campaign that started with a 3-1 home win over Leuven on matchday one. In fact, with three wins from four games (L1), the ‘Zebras’ are shaping up well for this fixture.

Mechelen did a league double over Charleroi last season, winning both games without conceding. However, their start to this campaign has been below par. A 3-3 home draw against St Liege last weekend was their first point of the league campaign after losing 2-0 away at Gent on matchday one. Worryingly for Mechelen, they have now lost six of their last eight league trips.

Our Charleroi vs Mechelen Prediction

Charleroi are one of the four sides to have started the season with back-to-back wins, while Mechelen are one of the nine sides yet to post a win. Will that continue here? Mechelen have struggled on the road lately, and even their matchday one away from home ended in a loss. Charleroi will be keen to continue their winning run, although their home form has been up and down.

Charleroi have won three of their last four home matches against Mechelen, and recent form also backs the hosts. Our Charleroi vs Mechelen prediction is Charleroi wins.
