Mechelen - Cercle Brugge betting tips and odds

Mechelen will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though Cercle Brugge don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 2.62 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

While Cercle Brugge may manage to claw their way to a win yet, it will be quite a struggle. As we can see thanks to the 2.60 betting odds for an away win, the odds are stacked against them – though it’s still manageable.

Mechelen’s latest away game at Sporting Charleroi was an inconclusive stalemate which persisted throughout the runtime. Considering they were visitors playing against a much stronger team, however, the : result isn’t too bad for Mechelen.

In the previous round of the Pro League, Cercle Brugge faced off against Sint-Truiden, with bookies pricing their victory at around 2.95 – largely due to them playing away. After an inconclusive first half, they managed to score a decider in the late game and record a 0:1 triumph.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

We should point out that Cercle Brugge scored more than 5 goals over the course of their previous 3 home games. They’re visitors this time around, but it’s still worth noting for the benefit of bets like Over 5 Goals.

The season’s match history shows us these two teams tied in an earlier round. Cercle Brugge may be the favourites, but they were unable to get the upper hand despite being the hosts last time.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.68 if you use the Betsson sportsbook.
