Anderlecht Preview – Can Anderlecht rekindle earlier form?
Anderlecht finished the First Division A regular season in impressive form as the hosts racked up four wins on the trot to claim a 3rd place finish in the Belgian top flight after recording wins against Zulte-Wraegem, Antwerp, Club Brugge (2-1 at home) and Sint-Truiden.
However, in the ensuing Championship Round group, Anderlecht have drawn three and lost one to date with points picked up in draws with Club Brugge (away), Antwerp and Genk along with a 2-1 loss at home to Genk.
Anderlecht have had the measure of the Championship group leaders, Club Brugge, though in recent times as they’re unbeaten in the previous two meetings against the regular title-holders.
Club Brugge Preview – Can Club Brugge win back-to-back?
A 2-1 home win over Antwerp last time out in the First Division A not only handed Club Brugge a valuable three points but also ended a run of three matches without a win in the Belgian top flight following draws with Anderlecht and Antwerp along with a 3-0 loss away at Genk.
Although overall form has been a little sketchy (by their standards), winning just three out of their last 10 matches overall, Club Brugge still hold a valuable five-point cushion at the top of the Championship group over 2nd placed Genk and with just two games remaining, the visitors will probably only need a point here to secure a Champions League spot for next season.
Recent results though have shown a vulnerable side to Club Brugge as they’ve lost two of their last three away matches including a 2-1 loss at tonight’s hosts, Anderlecht.
