Check out our prediction on Club Brugge vs Royal Antwerp as the visitors will try to put a stop to their horrendous start in the Belgium Championship League Play-off.
We predict Royal Antwerp to beat Club Brugge 3-1 and this is why. Club Brugge have lost their opening three Championship League play-off games including last weekend’s 3-2 defeat to Antwerp when they led for the majority of the game. Brugge haven’t won Antwerp this term, and it’s likely to remain that way this weekend.
Club Brugge may have lost their last three matches but it’s really possible they can score at least one goal against Royal Antwerp. They scored in last three matches and scored two last weekend against Antwerp. As a result, it’s feasible that both teams can score and total goals over 2.5 goals.
Royal Antwerp have won their opening three Championship League play-off matches and are in the right direction to winning the Belgian Pro League. They need to win their remaining two matches, assuming Union Saint-Gilloise do the same. Antwerp are at the top of the group with 45 points, one point ahead of USG.
Club Brugge have lost their opening three Championship League play-off matches, including last weekend’s 3-2 defeat to Royal Antwerp. They led 2-1 at halftime but lost the game in injury time. They are at the bottom of the group with 30 points, 11 points behind 3rd-placed Genk.
