KV Mechelen vs Club Brugge Prediction: Brugge expected to extend winning run

KV Mechelen and Club Brugge will compete against one another in the seventeenth round of the Jupiler Pro League. The match will take place at Achter de Kazerne. The hosts were defeated in their most recent match, but Club Brugge managed to extend their winning streak to four games in a row. 

KV Mechelen will aim for a better outcome following their 0-2 loss against Sint-Truidense in the previous First Division A game. In 5 of their last 6 meetings, there were fewer than three goals per match. Over this period, the total goal distribution saw opponents scoring a combined total of 6 goals, while KV Mechelen scored 6.

As they prepare for their upcoming match, KV Mechelen has not secured a victory against Club Brugge in their previous 4 league encounters.

Club Brugge heads into this upcoming match on a positive note after securing a 4-0 victory against SV Zulte Waregem in the Belgian Cup. Andreas Skov Olsen netted goals in the 16th and 19th minutes, while Igor Thiago contributed with goals in the 50th and 58th minutes.

The defensive performance of Club Brugge has been particularly noteworthy, as they have kept a clean sheet in their last 6 fixtures. During this defensive streak, their attack has been prolific, scoring a total of 14 goals.

In recent meetings, the visitors have shown a greater level of sharpness, and I have no doubt that they will bring their offensive and defensive balance into this engagement. As a result of the fact that KV Mechelen did not score in their previous match, I anticipate that they will deliver a more satisfactory performance in this match. In light of the fact that both teams are anticipated to demonstrate their character, the greatest bets in this situation are on the away team to win and on both teams to score.
