Prediction: 2-3
Club Brugge
Club Brugge will look to build on a routine 3-0 win over Waregem when they face Leuven at Den Dreef in the Jupiler League round 19. The reigning champions aim to put an extra pressure on surprising league leaders Royale Union SG, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Leuven. Since Ruben Providence remains the only absentee in the away team, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the title holders.
Leuven, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back losses to gent and Kortijk. Influential forward Sory Kaba is banned for the hosts, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the title-chasing visitors. Defender Louis Patris misses out as well as he has yet to recover from an ankle injury.
Highlighted Player (Simon Mignolet):

Mignolet would go on to spent next four years at the Stadium of Light, making 90 Premier League appearances. 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. Performing admirably most of the time, but also committing cheap mistakes at times, Mignolet has yet to win over the Liverpool fans, but remains highly regarded in his native country.
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.
