Club Brugge KV vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting tips
We open on Sunday with a winner. The rivals from Bruges and Anderlecht will then face each other. Can Club put a score of fifteen out of fifteen? Or can Anderlecht keep their unbeaten status?
Club Brugge:
Philippe Clement had to tinker with his starting team in recent weeks due to corona cases, but those problems seem to be off the track for the Club Brugge coach. First, Philippe Clement saw Brandon Mechele return from the Red Devils with a positive test. Shortly after the first matchday after the international break, there was a second corona case with blue-black, David Okereke. The Nigerian may resume training after approval by the Pro League. A stroke of luck for Club Brugge, which may therefore be heading for the top match without corona cases.
Club Brugge knows the three hurdles that have to be overcome to spend the winter in Europe. With the champion from Russia, the number two from Germany and the number three from Italy, Club Brugge was not presented with the biggest names. Nevertheless, blue-black will have to work six times. After nine match days, Zenit shares the lead with Spartak Moscow, with twenty points. Dortmund has started three out of six in the Bundesliga. Earlier this week, the competitor from Bavaria narrowly lost 3-2 in the battle for the German Super Cup. Lazio has scored three out of six in Serie A so far. Last weekend it went in-house with the buttocks exposed against Atalanta
Simon Mignolet has made an impression since returning to Belgium. At Club Brugge he is the indisputable number one and absolute star. His performance has attracted the attention of other teams and there has even been concrete interest in recent days. For a moment there was fear for one of the trendsetters of this competition to leave. Club Brugge has announced that it is not open to negotiations about their goalkeeper. The interest of Aston Villa and Rennes can therefore go back to the fridge.
Anderlecht:
Chances are that Anderlecht will have to do it again with a very young midfield against Club Brugge. Marco Kana joined the team against Eupen, replacing the injured Adrien Trebel. Chances are that the young talent will once again form a tandem with Albert Sambi Lokonga. Trebel has still not resumed group training. The French midfielder is still suffering from his knee and will most likely not be fit for the top match against Club Brugge in time.
So the top match between Anderlecht and Club Brugge is on the program on Sunday. Perhaps a must win for Anderlecht after a difficult start to the competition. Anderlecht better win to keep up with the top. Soon the experienced midfield of Club Brugge will face the youngsters of Anderlecht. “They do have more experience, for example, they know well how to handle the referee to their advantage,” Lokonga said. “But in terms of quality, we are not inferior to Club. Corona should not be an excuse either. ”
It was very clumsy how Anderlecht swallowed the late equalizer against Eupen on Sunday. The man with butter on his head? Derrick Luckassen. And that was not the first time this season. The Dutchman looks for his best form. Last season he was still a reliable defender, but this season he has already cost Anderlecht points against Mechelen and Eupen. The hamstrings that had been playing tricks on him for a whole season hurt again. Under normal circumstances, he should take a few weeks off, but Anderlecht are not very close to the central defenders.
