Cercle Brugge - Kortrijk betting tips and odds

Best bookmaker online do not see past Cercle Brugge in this game and we wholeheartedly agree. The betting odds work largely in their favour and there is a good reason for it. Kortrijk will have extremely difficult time running away with anything from this match.

With a price of 8.50 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear Kortrijk will likely not fare well against Cercle Brugge. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

The hosts’ previous Pro League bout at OH Leuven earned them 3 points, but the fight was much harder than the 4.40 betting odds predicted. After falling behind in the first half despite their status as favourites, they only managed to turn things around in the late game.

Although Kortrijk’s defeat in the previous round was a fairly painful 4:0, we can’t say that it was unexpected. They were vastly outmatched by their opponents Genk, who spent the entire match ahead.

Experts have pointed at Cercle Brugge’s defence as their biggest issue at the moment. They conceded 6 goals over the last 3 Pro League games.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Pro League engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

Despite the 1.37 price for a home win, the hosts lost their previous match against Kortrijk. However, it’s important to keep in mind that they were the visitors in that bout.

Wednesday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.
