Match Time & Date:

12:30 PM
Prediction: 1-1
St Gilloise
There will be fireworks when Club Brugge and Royale Union SG lock horns in the Jupiler League derby. Club Brugge survived Sturm in the Champions League round 2, but they face yet another difficult task against the fellow title hopefuls. Midfielder Raphael Onyerika is banned for the match, while defender Bjorn Meijer remains in the recovery room.
The visitors, on the other hand, faced no difficulties in a 3-0 win over Kortrijk, but beating Club Brugge at Jan Breydel Stadion is easier said than done. As both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Sunday’s clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. You should know that both St Gilloise and Club Brugge have found the net in each of their last eight meetings in the national championship. All Sofiane Boufal, Elton Kabangu, and Henok Teklab are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.

As one of world’s most talented goalkeepers, the Belgium international signed for Liverpool in the summer of 2013, and he has since been the club’s first choice goalkeeper.

The talented shot-stopper has been a member of the Belgium national team since 2011, earning over 20 caps for the Red Devils, but he has been playing second fiddle to Chelsea star Thibaut Courtois over the last few years.
