Club Brugge KV vs Charleroi Prediction: Home team looking to secure first win this year

At the Jan Breydel Stadion, the match between Club Brugge KV and Charleroi will take place. The home team's current winless streak, which stands at eight games, is their worst in any of the past five seasons. In the meantime, the team from Charleroi, who are on the road, will be looking to get back on track after drawing against Gent earlier in the week.

The previous encounter for Club Brugge in the First Division A was a 1-1 draw against Sint-Truidense VV. During that match, Club Brugge had 71% possession of the ball and 13 shots on goal, with 4 of those shots on target. Sint-Truiden, on the other hand, had eight shots on goal, four of which were on target. Wolke Janssens scored an own goal in the 26th minute, while Gianni Bruno scored for Sint-Truidense VV in the 77th minute. In recent matches, it has been exceedingly unusual for Club Brugge to keep a scoreless record for an entire game. They should be concerned about the fact that Club Brugge have failed to keep their opponents from scoring in six of their most recent six matches, allowing a total of 12 goals to be scored against them as a result. In their past four matches against Charleroi in the league, Club Brugge have remained undefeated.

Charleroi's most recent encounter, which was played against KAA Gent in the First Division A, ended in a scoreless draw. During that game, Charleroi was able to maintain a 50% possession rate and had 9 shots on goal, with 3 of them finding the back of the net. 11 shots were taken on goal by Gent, with six of them being on target. When looking at their recent form, Charleroi have allowed their opponents to score in 5 of their previous 6 matches, leading to a total of 11 goals being scored by their opponents. Charleroi enters this match having not suffered a defeat in either of their previous two matches played outside of their home stadium in the league.

Club Brugge should definitely create chances to score more than once against Charleroi, who may struggle to find the back of the net. Our prediction is that Club Brugge will win this game.
