📰 Team News: Club Brugge

Hugo Siquet (Ill), Bjorn Meijer (Hamstring muscle injury) and Gustaf Nilsson (Achilles tendon problems) won’t be playing for Club Brugge manager Nicky Hayen.

It looks as if Blauw-Zwart will probably use a 4-3-3 formation this time featuring Simon Mignolet, Joaquin Seys, Brandon Mechele, Joel Ordóñez, Maxim De Cuyper, Ardon Jashari, Hans Vanaken, Raphael Onyedika, Andreas Skov Olsen, Ferran Jutglà and Christos Tzolis.

📋 Team News: Dender

Dender manager Vincent Euvrard has multiple availability issues to deal with. Malcolm Viltard (Torn muscle bundle), Danny Fofana (unknown injury), Michael Lallemand (Broken ankle), Jasper Van Oudenhove (Torn muscle bundle) and Abdoulaye Yahaya (Torn muscle bundle) will not be playing here.

We are inclined to think that Dender seem likely to elect for a 3-4-1-2 lineup, settling for Michael Verrips, Gilles Ruyssen, Kobe Cools, Bryan Goncalves, Karol Fila, Nathan Rodes, Fabio Ferraro, Joedrick Pupe, Roman Kvet, Mohamed Berte and Aurélien Scheidler.

⚡ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Club Brugge are likely to see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

However, Dender are also probably going to find it difficult to score themselves - but, we do see them managing to get on the scoresheet here.

We can therefore see a fairly comfortable 3-1 margin for Club Brugge at the end of the 90 minutes.
