Match Time & Date:

11:45 AM
Prediction: 3-2
St Gilloise
Jan Breydel Stadion will be the centre of attention when Club Brugge and St Gilloise square off against each other in the Jupiler League derby on Tuesday evening. Club Brugge are eager to revive their title hopes and they must be high on confidence following a 6-1 crushing of RWDM. A man to watch in the home team will be Brazil forward Igor Thiago, who has netted five goals in total in the previous two league fixtures, while Bjorn Meijer should miss out with injury.
St Gilloise, on the other hand, are leading the chase for the Jupiler League trophy with 47 points on their account. As the league leaders are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, we are tempted to bet on over 2.5 goals. Anyhow, Club Brugge want this win more than St Gilloise. The good news for the visiting side is that Sweden international Gustaf Nilsson is back from suspension.
