Sint-Truiden, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 2-2 draw against Gent will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Sint-Truiden. They achieved 49% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Gent's tally of 19 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 5 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
Cercle Brugge, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 1-0 away win over Standard Liège in their last league game, Cercle Brugge will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Standard Liège had 7 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Miron Muslic will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Cercle Brugge that came out on top with a 3-1 win.
In each of the previous 3 matches against Groen en Zwart, STVV have let in at least one goal.
STVV have lost the last 3 times they've faced Cercle in the league and have failed to win in their last 3 encounters.
With no real injury worries, STVV manager Thorsten Fink will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Cercle manager Miron Muslic ahead of this clash, with Edgaras Utkus (Thigh) missing out, which gives Muslic a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
