Charleroi failed to be more creative with the ball in the last round at home against St. Truiden when they had a goalless draw, lacking more sharpness at the finishing.
The hosts created several decent opportunities during this clash, but as previously mentioned, they lacked more creativity in the offense to make this clash a bit more interesting to watch, with the guests having their share of chances too.
Charleroi is currently at the 11th spot on the table, having three points less than play-off Waregem.
Central-back Willems (18/0) is injured, as well as offensive Nkuba (11/0) and midfielder Morioka (27/2).
Club Brugge met the expectations in the last match against underdogs from Waregem, as they routinely recorded a 3:0 victory back at their home on Sunday afternoon.
The quality gap was obvious from the start, as the hosts were in complete control over the situation on the field. They scored two before the first part ended (via Badji and Sobol) and confirmed their victory via Lang in the 63rd minute of this pretty much one-sided encounter.
Club Brugge firmly holds the leading position in the Jupiler league, now being mathematically secured for the playoff phase.
Goalkeeper Horvath (1/0) and offensive midfielder De Ketelaere (26/1) are out due to covid-19.
Simply too strong this season
Even though the guests secured their place in the Championship Group part of the table, their victory is not questioned in this clash. They were eliminated from the Euro campaign two weeks ago, so they can put their entire focus on the Jupiler League, in which they have no equal at the moment.
Also, a high number of goals is looking quite realistic, as Club Brugge is more than capable to score two or three alone, while the hosts have the means to spice this one up a bit via counters.
Prediction : Over 1.5 Goals
