Kortrijk, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 away defeat by Westerlo will have left the Kortrijk squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Westerlo who had 9 attempts and 7 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 10 and seen valuable points lost. Bernd Storck will be unhappy that his team have failed to keep a clean sheet in so many home games, having conceded in 12 of their 14 this season.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Club Brugge, Recent FormClub Brugge will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 home win against Standard Liège. They achieved 43% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Standard Liège's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 6 goals and some valuable points in the process. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Hans Vanaken has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Kortrijk.
The 2-1 victory which Club Brugge recorded last time these two sides met was no surprise to most.
Blauw-Zwart will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Kortrijk, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 7 meetings between the two. De Kerels have struggled to break down the Brugge defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
Brugge will be looking to continue their winning streak against Kortrijk, having won each of the last 5 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 12 meetings.
With only Jonah Osabutey (Abdominal) and Oleksiy Sych (Ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Bernd Storck will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
With only Jack Hendry (Unknown) and Andreas Skov Olsen (Illness) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Rik De Mil will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
