Prediction: 1-2
Club Brugge
Charleroi will look to make amends for a massive 4-1 loss to Antwerp when they take on Club Brugge in the Jupiler League round 22. The Black and Whites continue with their old habit of producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels, but they will have a big fish to fry in Saturday’s encounter. The good news for the hosts is that defender Jonas Bager is back from suspension, while both Oday Dabbagh and Herve Kouakou Koffi are on international duty.
Club Brugge, on the other hand, kicked off 2024 in style, with the team outplaying Westerlo 3-0 in front of home fans. A man to watch in the away team will be Igor Thiago, who scored a brace at the weekend. Anyhow, away triumph should be considered as Club Brugge produced a fine display in the crushing of Westerlo. Both Denis Odoi and Raphael Onyedika are on international duty.
