The only draw was a 2-2 home result for Virton on Nov 11, 2023, in the Challenger Pro League.

Win Probability: Royal Excelsior Virton or RAAL La Louviere?

Converting the available 1X2 odds (home 1.50, draw 2.62, away 4.75) into implied probabilities gives a baseline of 53% for a Virton win, 30% for a draw, and 17% for a La Louviere win. After adjusting for recent form (Virton’s 4-1-0 run in their last five domestic matches vs La Louviere’s 2-0-3) and the head-to-head dominance of the away side, we set the final win probabilities at:

• Royal Excelsior Virton win: 50%
• Draw: 28%
• RAAL La Louviere win: 22%

Virton holds a clear edge in current form and enjoys home advantage, but La Louviere’s unbeaten H2H record and recent experience in a higher league cannot be ignored. The most likely match outcome is a home win, yet the draw remains a solid second possibility.

Odds & Match Prediction

Bookmakers see Royal Excelsior Virton as the favourite, offering best prices around 1.47 to 1.50 for a home victory. The draw is available at 2.62–2.70, while an away win for RAAL La Louviere is priced from 4.50 to 5.55. Based on the stats, the value may lie in the home win, but risk-averse bettors could consider the double chance 1X given Virton’s positive form.

Our prediction: Royal Excelsior Virton to win, but with a lower confidence than the raw odds suggest. The match is likely to be competitive, and a draw cannot be ruled out.
