Club Brugge form and stats

Club Brugge have played three Pro League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Brugge enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Zulte-Waregem's place. The match ended 6-0 with M. Krmenčík (2), H. Vanaken, É. Álvarez and C. De Ketelaere scoring. Ahead of that match, Brugge won a home game hosting Waasland-Beveren (4-1).

As mentioned above, Brugge "killed" Zulte-Waregem in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

Club Brugge has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. 3 goals have been conceded.

Anderlecht form and stats

Things could have gone better for Anderlecht in their Pro League away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right.

It's the second away game in a row for Anderlecht, but there's smiles all around after the 4-2 victory versus Waasland-Beveren (placed 17th) in the Pro League last time out. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Cercle Brugge.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Waasland-Beveren was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Anderlecht create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 8 goals in 3 travels. For Anderlecht, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's seven Brugge victories, one draw and two Anderlecht wins. Over/under statistics; seven of these games ended with three goals or more, three matches with two goals or less.
