Match Preview
Antwerp hosts Cercle Brugge at the Bosuilstadion on Friday, looking to build on their recent form, which has seen them secure three draws and a win in their last five matches. The home side has been solid defensively, but they will need to convert more of their chances into goals to climb the Pro League table. In contrast, Cercle Brugge has struggled lately, with only one win in their last five outings, indicating potential vulnerabilities in both defence and attack.
A key angle to consider is Antwerp's home advantage, where they have historically performed well against Cercle Brugge, winning three of their last ten encounters at home. Additionally, both teams have shown a tendency to score, with four of their last ten meetings seeing both teams find the net. With Antwerp's need for a decisive victory and Cercle Brugge's inconsistent form, this match could provide the perfect opportunity for the home side to assert their dominance and secure a crucial three points.
