The Club Brugge & Sporting Charleroi managers P. Clement and K. Belhocine are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Pro League league table.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Sporting Charleroi are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
Club Brugge form and stats
Club Brugge, who have the most clean sheets (16) in Pro League, have been outstanding at home so far in the Pro League with 10 wins, 3 draws and only 0 losses. Club Brugge has a nice streak going on as they have played twelve consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Antwerp defeat 105 days ago. Club Brugge has won so many consecutive home games (seven in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Jan Breydelstadion. We remember; it was Standard Liège.
A nice win for Club Brugge last time playing, versus Waasland-Beveren. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with M. Rits (2) scoring for the victors. 0-0 away at Standard Liège before that.
Some amazing scenes last match, when M. Rits scored the winning goal six minutes into stoppage time.
Goals decide football matches and Club Brugge are scoring many of them at home; 30 on target from 13 league matches. Club Brugge have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.
