Club Brugge KV vs Mouscron Prediction & Betting tips
Club Brugge must prepare itself after Tuesday’s Champions League match to receive Mouscron in-house on Saturday. The lead on the first pursuer is already six points and we are just halfway through the competition. Can anyone stop Club Brugge for now? Perhaps it is Mouscron, which is in the process of a good season and for the time being falls outside play-off I. Will they ensure Club’s first home defeat?
Club Brugge:
Club Brugge is on a titration rate. And there is nothing you can do about it for now. After fifteen games, Club has a great report from thirty-six to forty-five. First pursuer Standard has six less with even one more race behind it. The target balance also speaks volumes. While Club has a goal balance of + twenty-nine, Standard has + fifteen. That is just over half. Last week KV Oostende came to visit.
The league leader against the third to last, on paper Club had already won the game before the kick-off. That difference in level was also quickly visible in practice. Dutoit had to take a shot from Diatta after five minutes, the start of a busy evening for the KVO goalkeeper. The 1-0 seemed to be in the making in fifteen minutes. Sobol brought the ball perfectly in front of goal, but Schrijvers missed his shot on the second post. Vanaken was also unable to cash in on a good cross from Sobol, he headed close up. A little before half an hour, Ostend could come up with something. Mignolet needed an excellent save to keep Vargas from a hit against his former club. No 0-1, but 1-0 just two minutes later. On a corner, Vanaken first headed on the crossbar, but Rits scored with luck in the resumption. A nice gift for his fiftieth blue and black competition. Immediately afterwards, Dutoit prevented Diatta’s 2-0, but Ostend received a second slap not much later. Vargas continued with his studs on the ankle of Deli and after the intervention of the VAR the Venezuelan had to drip off. Both Schrijvers and Okereke came close to the 2-0, Ostend was happy that it was only 1 goal at halftime. But after only two minutes in the second half, Ostend still faced a double deficit. Just as with the 1-0 Club scored again with a frommelgoal. The ball came through Milovic a bit luckily for Schrijvers’ feet and he didn’t miss the chance. For a toothless Ostend, there was only one assignment left: to avoid a punishment. Fortunately, the coastal team could count on Dutoit. The French goalkeeper kept Vormer from 3-0 and also shook an excellent save from a far-off bang by Schrijvers. At Club, the grinta gradually faded away, the home team kept Ostend under control without really looking for a third goal. Still it was a bit scared for the home crowd when substitute Boonen came close to the goal in the final quarter.
Clément was able to look back positively on a home victory for his team: “We have taken control of the match from the start, made good goals and we have another clean sheet. That red card might not have been good for the game, it might even have been a disadvantage for us. As a result, Ostend mainly started defending and little came out of it, so there were almost never any real spaces. We could have done better in that area in the second half. But we have to be very satisfied. After fifteen match days we have eighty percent of the points. That is a very strong average. ”
Royal Excelsior Mouscron:
Mouscron has clearly continued their good end of last season this season. After sixteen games, it is in a nice eighth place, leaving Genk and Anderlecht behind. It is five points behind the number six, KV Mechelen. That means that even play-off I itself could be a possible option, something that they secretly dream of at Mouscron. Last week the KRC Genk looked into their own stadium. It was the first game for new trainer Wolf at Genk.
Wolf started at Genk with a clean slate, but after less than two minutes there was already a dirty line on it. Boya headed through a sharp corner kick by Ciranni and on the second post Perica nodded between three players from Genoa. Mouscron was also the better team, but Genk struggled again in the game. The many possession of the ball yielded a dot of a chance in fifteen minutes, Paintsil drove them incomprehensibly over. Moments later it was hit, Dewaest reacted instinctively and made it right. The football remained messy, but the visitors took advantage of it. Paintsil spilled it again and De Norre was unlucky that Queiros got in the way on the line. Mouscron stared at the clock, as the home team could use the break well. Due to some interruptions for the care of Boya and especially the unfortunate Heynen, it took a long time. So there was still enough time for Samatta to mow alongside a busy van at Ito. Genk already deserved a head start before the break and continued diligently afterwards. Substitute Onuachu was unable to crown a dribble by Maehle on the first post, but straightened out his mistake. He needed some help from Boya, who in his zeal to shield the ball signed for the unwanted assist. The most difficult part was behind the back of the Limburgers, who may already have been cautiously looking forward to the match against Salzburg next Wednesday. After all, Mouscron played too stiff to become dangerous in the game itself. However, L’Excel proved that a stagnant phase can be enough. The mischievous Antonov painted his free kick through the bottom of the crossbar in goal. That was a delicious curl. Genk turned the knob again and developed powerplay, but always clashed with brave and furious resistance from the Hainaut defense. Mouscron even countered for a nice opportunity. Dewaest thought Mohamed was an introgator. On the other side, Onuachu seemed to redeem Genk, but to his horror, the VAR swept his 2-3 away for just offside.
Relief prevailed at Mouscron. After they played a good game, it seemed that they were heading for a loss, but the Henegouwers managed to pull a point out of the fire. The confidence and feeling are good and they try to continue on that impetus. At Bruges there is nothing to lose, just to win.
