Our prediction for this Belgium Pro League match:
Following a goalless draw with Juventus in the Champions League round 7, Club Brugge will look to return to winning ways when they face Kortijk in the Jupiler League. The title holders aim to overtake Genk in top position and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the De Kerels. Ferran Jutgla is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 4-2 win over Beerschot VA, while boss Nicky Hayen has no fresh injury worries.
Kortrijk, on the other hand, are running down a blind alley, with the team sitting in the penultimate place in the standings. Given their three-game losing run in the Belgian top flight, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. To make things even worse for the away team, defender Joao Silva misses the trip to Brugge through suspension.
