Club Brugge KV vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting tips
Sunday is the absolute top ticket of this game day on the program. In its own Jan Breydel Stadium, Club Brugge takes it against the eternal rival Anderlecht. Is Club breaking the title fight all the way? Or can Anderlecht celebrate the title?
Club Brugge KV :
Club Brugge is the only team that announced the ambition to become a champion at the beginning of the season. There was no dirt on the air for a long time. Despite the disappointing Champions Leaguecampagne it was on schedule in the regular league. But a few losses resulted in Anderlecht taking the lead just before the start of play-offs. Play-off 1 started dramatically with two to twelve. Then the turning point came nine to nine and still a chance on the title.
Club Brugge won the weekend at Charleroi. Benoit Poulain broke out during the warming, making Bjorn Engels again a chance. Trainer Michel Preud’homme had a surprise in store because he put Ludovic Butelle and Captain Timmy Simons on the bench. Substitute in goal Ethan Horvath did well on one bizarre flater. He is the one and only one who tries to miss the halftime kick. Wrong thinking and Charleroi’s tip made the easiest goal out of his career. Fortunately, Club could count on his gold hunter José Izquierdo. He knocked Club to a 1-3 victory.
Izquierdo made his first hat trick out of his career. The gold shoe scored fourteen times this season. Like last year, he is very important in the playoffs and Club Brugge will need the best Izquierdo against Anderlecht. Three more matches will rest in Belgium because no one who doubts that he will be transferred to the summer merit.
Probable setup Club Brugge
Horvath, Cools, Denswil, English, Palacios, Claudemir, Vanaken, Vormer, Izquierdo, Foxes, Rotariu
Anderlecht :
At Anderlecht this season had to go away for the 34th title and the twenty five million euros of the Champions League that came with it. Due to the moderate game it brings this season it will be more champion than ever before. Purple and white is still the favorite for the title and if it does not go too bad, it will also pick up that ride.
Anderlecht won home with Waregem 2-0 but could only convince. In his own home Anderlecht had 42% ball possession and gave ten chances away. If goalkeeper Frank Boeckx does not make a good save on a shot then it’s 0-1. And at the first (counter) attack it was deadly efficient.
The win shows the dream scenario ready for the Anderlecht supporter. Win at Club Brugge and the title is in. Easier said than done. Central to the midfield must miss the Adrien Trebel and ahead of top scorer Lukasz Teodorczyk dry for more than twelve hours. It may play his favorite game: counter. However, if the Club gives as many opportunities as Waregem, it does not look good.
Probable setup Anderlecht
Boeckx, Obradovic, Spajic, Kara, Appiah, Hanni, Dendoncker, Tielemans, Acheampong, Chipciu, Teodorczyk
