Tip and bets

1.88Brugge wins

The hosts have suffered three defeats in their last four matches, but their opponents were also quite strong - Union, Standard and Genk. Antwerp can also show good football, but matches with high-status opponents are rarely successful for the visitors. Home advantage should help Brugge finally get their first win of the season.

Our prediction is Brugge win at 1.88
