Mechelen, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 home defeat by Sint-Truiden will have left the Mechelen squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with 52% of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 5 on target. By comparison, Sint-Truiden managed 13 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
Manager Besnik Hasi will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 5 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
Club Brugge, Recent FormClub Brugge will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Standard Liège. Their share of possession in that meeting was 53%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Standard Liège had 7 shots on goal with 2 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 6 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 4 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, and they have had a recent run of 3 clean sheets overall.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
With 4 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Club Brugge, Andreas Skov Olsen will be looking to add more goals against Mechelen in this match.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
