Prediction: 1-0
Antwerp
Sunday’s football game at Jan Breydel Stadion pits together Cercle Brugge and Antwerp, the two bottom-table sides. Cercle Brugge aim to remain undefeated in the Championship Group and they are surely capable of matching the out-of-sorts visitors in front of home fans. Defender Boris Popovic is banned for the match, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Reds, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league matches and given their under-par performance in a 3-0 loss to Club Brugge, home win should be considered. As for the away team, goalkeeper Jean Butez remains on the sidelines with a broken hand, while defender Bjorn Engels is a major doubt. You should know that Antwerp emerged triumphant in each of their last four meetings with Cercle Brugge in the national championship.
Highlighted Team (Antwerp):
Founded back in 1880, Antwerp is one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Great Old welcome their rivals at Bosuilstadion, the venue with the capacity of 16,144 people. Antwerp are well known for their red home kits, with the team wearing white shirts and white jerseys when playing on the travels.
Over the years Antwerp have been trying to close the gap between Belgian giants Anderlecht and Club Brugge, but they have yet to win the title in the recent history. The Great Old clinched their first domestic trophy back in 1929, with the team repeating the success two years later. The third and the fourth titles came in 1944 and 1957 respectively.
Beerschot A.C. are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, but they have a rivalry with Club Brugge as well. The club chiefs had a long-term partnership with famous English club Manchester United in the past, with Antwerp taking young footballers on loan to Old Trafford.
