Mechelen are the only team with more than one player in our team of the week. All members of Play-Offs 1 are represented in our team for the 27th day.
Guardian
This week, we place Jean Butez in goal. He made some crucial saves, preventing La Gantoise from widening the gap against Antwerp. It is also thanks to him that the Great Old snatched a point from the Buffalos.
Defenders
Ewoud Pletinckx scored an important goal for OH Louvain, while maintaining the score parity until the end of the match, in order to win a crucial point for the Louvanists at the RWDM. On the left side we have McKenzie, who contributed offensively and defensively to Genk’s success at Charleroi.
Matte Smets also played an important role for his team. It is possible that Ghent regrets not having recruited him this winter. Another solid meeting for Trudonnaire, and a clean sheet against Westerlo.

Midfielders
Mechelen easily beat Kortrijk 3-0, and much of that can be attributed to their midfield. Bill Antonio and Mukau put in a solid performance, with the former even managing to score. At Club Bruges, Hans Vanaken found the rhythm and delivered an assist. De Sart was once again the metronome for Ghent, too bad for him not to have been able to force the decision for the Buffalos.
Attackers
A few substitutes were of great importance during this day. Consider the example of Ilenikenha in Antwerp or Vazquez in Anderlecht. However, ultimately three other starters stood out with excellent performances.
The championship’s top scorer, Kevin Denkey, was again crucial with two goals for Cercle Bruges, while Nilsson, with a goal and an assist, was important in the success of leader Saint-Gillois against Standard. Thorgan Hazard also continues to confirm his great form and seems to be able to claim a place with the Red Devils again.
