Prediction: 1-2
Club Brugge
Buoyed by a come-from-behind win over Leuven, Club Brugge will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on St. Truiden at Daio Wasabi Stayen. Club Brugge are eyeing their third consecutive league win and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Raphael Onyedika is back from suspension, but both Maxim De Cuyper and Denis Odoi are banned for the match.
The Canaries, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Antwerp (0-3) and Eupen (0-1) and given Club Brugge’s signs of improvement, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Belgian powerhouse. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team, but veteran striker Shinji Okazaki remains in the recovery room. You should know that St. Truiden have not defeated Club Brugge in the Belgian top flight since July 2015.
