Club Brugge KV welcome the visitors Gent in the Belgian Jupiler League – Round 24. The match will be held on Sunday, February, 3rd, at the Jan Breydel Stadion (Brugge).
Suffering a home loss in the last but one round against Sporting Charleroi, Club Brugge KV made their fans nervous in the last encounter as well. They travelled to KV Oostende and were losing yet in the 1st half, 0:1. Then they managed to psyche up and did not allow the 2nd loss in a row to happen, scoring 2 unanswered goals to the hosts. The team presently take the 2nd line in the standings, running 7 points behind the leading Genk.

In light of the 2 consecutive wins over KV Kortrijk and R.S.C. Anderlecht, Gent finally succeeded to get into the top-six. Featuring the same tally as Anderlecht do (37), they share the 5th and the 6th places in the standings. But it is not the time to relax yet. There are 7 rounds ahead, while Sint-Truiden’s breakaway is 1 point, and Charleroi are 3 points behind.
It is noteworthy that the sides’ meetings have mostly been effective. 9 of their 15 latest head-to-heads produced over 2.5 goals. After 23 rounds held, the hosts’ goal difference is 50 to 24, and the guests’ one is 41 to 37, which suggests that tomorrow’s match will see enough goals. Both Brugge and Gent were overscoring in 16 rounds. The opponents with such a record will probably make 3 goals at halves. As for the homeside’s win, we’d better play safe and suggest a possible draw. Brugge play host tomorrow, and they’ve been successful against Gent – the history reads their 6 wins in 7 latest meetings. The guests, however, will look to secure their 6th tier in the table, so, they will be very plucky. Gent are unlikely to take all 3 points from the champions, but the presently inconsistent Brugge can possibly gift them 1 point. Well, much depends on the hosts’ mood though – they may also feature a hammering by a margin of 3-4 goals, as they did in this league’s encounter in Gent.
Prediction for the match: Club Brugge KV to win or Draw & Over 2.5 goals.
