1st position in the Pro League table for Club Brugge so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 9th-placed Kortrijk visits Jan Breydelstadion.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Club Brugge form and stats
Club Brugge, who have the the best goal difference (+17) in Pro League, have collected 10 points from their Pro League home games so far after 3-1-2.
Brugge enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at KV Oostende's place. The match ended 3-1 with Krépin Diatta, Mats Rits and Youssouph Badji scoring. Ahead of that match, Brugge lost 0-3 at home to Borussia Dortmund.
The manager P. Clement will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Borussia Dortmund in only three days.
The Brugge fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 11 goals in 6 league matches. 6 goals have been conceded.
Kortrijk form and stats
3-2-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Kortrijk in their Pro League matches away.
There were no winners in Kortrijk's previous match, a Pro League home game that ended 5-5 vs Beerschot-Wilrijk (placed 5th). Before that, Kortrijk travelled to Zulte-Waregem and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
Drawing 5-5 against Beerschot-Wilrijk after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Y. Vanderhaeghe needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Kortrijk, as mentioned above. 10 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
Kortrijk find the net regularly in their away games. 7 goals from 6 away fixtures in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Brugge won seven, Kortrijk won one and two draws. nine games with over 2,5 goals, one match with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
