Club Brugge - Anderlecht predictions

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.57, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

From the current standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Club Brugge and the 6.68 odds given to Anderlecht to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a stunning surprise.

Club Brugge strolled into a relatively easy 4:2 victory against Sporting Charleroi in the last round. Their fans at Jan Breydelstadion were treated to an uneventful showing in the first half followed by complete dominance in the second.

Anderlecht performed admirably in their previous Pro League match – though their success was not exactly a surprise. They were tagged as favourites – though not by a large margin – and played on home turf, so the odds were stacked against their opponents Cercle Brugge.

With 5 goals over the previous 3 matches, Club Brugge attackers are nothing to be scoffed at. If the trend continues, we’ll see some rather impressive records from then by the end of the season.

According to the recent head-to-head records, Club Brugge already has a win over the away team recorded earlier in the season. It was a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless, justifying the 1.57 odds on a home win.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.97. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
