Dender - Club Brugge predictions

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 5.33 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Dender to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

The odds are clearly leaning in the away team’s favour, though the difference is by no means insurmountable. Dender will have to give their all to come out on top, though, while Club Brugge merely have to make sure not to make major mistakes.

The hosts’ supporters are quite confident after seeing the team thrash Kortrijk in the previous round. Yes, they had the upper hand from the start thanks to home-field advantage and overall favourable betting odds, but even the most optimistic of fans didn’t see them dominating the game throughout, as they ended up doing. The final 4:1 score is quite decisive, too.

The previous round of the Pro League saw Club Brugge win 1:0 in a favourable home matchup against Antwerp. That said, the pre-match betting odds for them to win were 4.89, so the fact that the game was a relatively close call is somewhat surprising.

Dender have managed to bag 6 goals in the last three showdowns, and the supporters at Van Roystadion are expecting a lot of action this time around.

Though the visitors are favourites here, it’s important to note they’ll be playing without K. Sabbe, Bjorn Meijer, Marco Lund Nielsen, Victor Barberá Moreno due to injury. On the flip side, the hosts will also be several players short – namely, A. Yahaha, Michaël Lallemand, Jasper van Oudenhove have also reported injuries.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.60 odds offered at Betway.
