Lokeren welcome the visitors Club Brugge KV in the Belgian Jupiler League – Round 21. The match will be held on Thursday, December 27th, at the Daknamstadion (Lokeren).
Though rock-bottom in the standings, Lokeren by no means should be considered hopeless. They are just 3 points off the safe zone that will ensure their stay in the elite Belgian league. The team rack up points quite often – in the last 4 rounds, they got 4 points, which is quite a good haul for an outsider. As for the coming match wherein Lokeren face the team that blistered in the Champions League… well, they just need to get over this encounter and go on; and, preferably, they need to avoid a smashout defeat, not to upset their fans too much. Club Brugge KV are a totally different world, this is the machine that have shipped 47 goals in 20 Jupiler League matches. The hosts can hardly count on any points at the Daknamstadion on Thursday.

Brugge have let Genk go quite far, and catching up with them will be rather difficult, as 7 points breakaway presents a challenge. This happened so because Brugge were too much overwhelmed with their Champions League run and neglected the national competition. It’s good it wasn’t in vain, as the team will compete in the Europa League – 1/16 Finals in spring. As for now, they may concentrate solely on the Jupiler fixtures – they are very committed to the campaign these days, we should admit. The last league round saw a hammering at their hands against the third-placed Royal Antwerp, 5:1. These are the real Brugge machine! The coming meeting with Lokeren will be a must-win, for sure – the topper will easily beat the league’s outsider.
We bet on the clear favorite’s win. As the match is held away from Brugge’s home, we may not claim it will see a smashout, but the guests will get their 3 points anyway.
Prediction for the match: Club Brugge KV to win away.
