Mechelen Preview – Can Mechelen pull away from relegation zone?
Having failed to win any of their last four matches overall in the Belgian top flight, Thursday night’s hosts, Mechelen, find themselves perched just above the relegation zone in the First Division A on just goal difference prior to this tough looking clash at home to Club Brugge.
Recent losses to Beerschot and Waasland-Beveren both by 3-2 margins but both on home turf at their AFAS-stadion Achter de Kazerne have been disappointing setbacks and although they’ve picked up points in draws with Eupen and Standard Liege (both away from home), the fact remains that Mechelen have managed to win just three league matches to date overall.
Results away from home have actually been better than at home where Mechelen have picked up just one win so far this season amidst a record of 1-2-5 14/17 which was a 2-0 win over bottom club Sint-Truiden and includes just one clean sheet to date.
Club Brugge Preview – Can Club Brugge pull clear at top?
Thursday’s visitors, Club Brugge, actually hold a two-point lead over 2nd placed Genk but this deficit could well be five points after the 90 minutes away at Mechelen as the First Division A league leaders look to capture a third league win on the trot.
Club Brugge have won four of their last five matches in the Belgian top flight which includes wins against Oostende, Kortrijk, Sint-Truiden and Antwerp, while their unbeaten run stretches across six matches overall and this run of resuLts has been instrumental in lifting the visitors top of the First Division A.
Results away from home have also been solid as the visitors have suffered just one defeat out of their last 15 matches on their travels and have won three of the previous four meetings against their hosts, Mechelen, as well in recent exchanges.
