KV Mechelen vs Cercle Brugge KSV – Preview, and Prediction
KV Mechelen vs Cercle Brugge KSV – Cercle Brugge won two straight games to move up to fourth place in the standings. Their last match in October is currently against Mechelen.
In their most recent game against Genk, Mechelen performed poorly and gave up four goals. They have lost over half of their games this season, placing them in the relegation zone.
You can wager on the following: our initial prediction is that Cercle Brugge will prevail in this match; the wager has an odd of 2.16.
Now, for our second prediction for this match, there will be more than 2.5 goals; the probability for this prediction is 1.68.
The key basis for my prediction is the away team’s goal differential of five in their most recent two wins, which came against Gent and Leuven.
