Beerschot vs Club Brugge Predictions

• Beerschot have lost each of their last six games, and have been defeated in 14 of their last 17 matches.
• The hosts have also conceded two or more goals in five of their last six games.
• Club Brugge have won six games in a row, all of them by more than a one-goal margin.

Brugge’s title challenge should remain on track

Club Brugge sit five points behind shock Belgian leaders Union Saint-Gilloise, but a run of six consecutive league wins has kept Alfred Schreuder’s men in with a shot of an 18^th league title in their storied history. The visitors have won each of those six games by more than a one-goal goal margin, and will be supremely confident of another triumph over lowly Beerschot this Friday.

Indeed, Brugge have scored 20 goals and conceded four across their last six fixtures. Their tally of 67 league goals this term is just three shot of Union SG’s record, and their return of 33 points from 16 away league games, of which they’ve won 10, is also the second-best in the division.

Friday’s trip to Beerschot, who have lost each of their last six games, represents the perfect opportunity for Schreuder’s men to remain on track. The hosts have lost 14 of their last 17 games and are a staggering 16 points from safety at the bottom of the table. Beerschot have conceded 68 goals in 32 league outings, and have shipped 13 in their last six contests.

Title-chasing Brugge should beat the handicap

Given the understandably short price available around the visitors, backing them to beat a -1 handicap, which they’ve done on each of their last six outings, looks the outstanding play ahead of this clash.

Furthermore, the visitors have netted three or more goals in each of their last five games, so a 3-0 win for Brugge could be a decent correct score prediction.
