Club Brugge to make up ground on Union Saint-Gilloise at the top of table
8906

On Thursday night, two of the top teams in the Belgian Jupiler League meet, as Club Brugge host league leaders Union Saint-Gilloise.

Club Brugge are currently second-place in the table, trailing Wednesday night’s opponents by nine points. A recent inconsistent run of form for the reigning Belgian champions has been a big factor in trailing the visitors.

The home team has won just one of their previous four matches in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League.

Alfred Schreuder’s team have at least remained prolific in recent league games, as they have scored at least two goals in seven of their last eight matches in the Belgian top-flight.

Veteran Dutch forward Bas Dost has been in fine form of late for Club Brugge, as the forward has scored three goals in his teams last two league outings.

Union Saint-Gilloise have shocked everybody with their rise to the top of the Belgian table this season.

Their performance is even more remarkable since they are playing in the Belgian top-flight this season for the first time since season 1972/73.

The new boys go into this game on the back of a seven-game unbeaten run in the Jupiler League, having recorded six wins in the process.

One of the key factors in the visitor’s strong campaign so far this season has been their eye for goal, as the leaders have scored at least two goals in 12 of their last 14 league matches. They are also the league’s top goalscorers.

A seven-game winning streak on their travels in the Belgian top-flight has also played a big part in their current lofty position in the table.

Forebet predicts that Club Brugge will end the visitors recent run by recording a win in a low-scoring encounter to make up ground on the league’s surprise leaders.
