Tip and bets

2.29Cercle Brugge wins

Cercle Brugge failed in the first match and lost by three goals – it will not be easy to win back such a handicap. At the same time, the Belgians will certainly make an attempt to make a comeback – Molde is very vulnerable away and does not have an advantage in class. It makes sense to give preference to the hosts.

Bet on total

Cercle Brugge will obviously go forward with great force from the first minutes – otherwise it will be unrealistic to win back three goals. At home, the “green-blacks” score regularly and it is unlikely that Molde has a chance to avoid problems in defense. However, the Norwegians know how to play on counterattacks and will certainly have their moments as well.

Bet - total over three goals. This outcome is offered for 1.95
