Cercle Brugge set to continue their excellent form at Mechelen
6075

On Friday night, Mechelen and Cercle Brugge go head-to-head in the Belgian top flight as the visitors look to continue an excellent recent run of league form.

Mechelen

The home team is currently in 13th place in the Belgian top-flight table, just five points clear of the relegation zone.

They have taken just a point from their last two outings in the Belgian top flight after a 3-1 defeat at Genk before a 2-2 draw against Zulte Waregem last time out.

The results mean that Mechelen has won two of their last eight league games, having lost four of their previous seven games.

Their recent matches in the Belgium Jupiler Pro League have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven league outings.

Although Mechelen’s recent league results have been underwhelming, they are at least three games unbeaten on home soil, having scored at least two goals in all three unbeaten home matches.

Cercle Brugge

The visitors are only outside the European qualification spots courtesy of an inferior goal difference to eighth-place Standard Liege. A stellar recent run of league form has certainly enhanced their chances of booking a European spot for next season.

Miron Muslic’s team has hit form of late, as they are unbeaten in six league matches, having recorded five wins and one draw in the run.

Their recent matches in the Belgian top flight have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last nine games in the league.

Cercle Brugge’s recent away form has been creditable, as they have won three of their last five league games on their travels.
