Leuven vs Cercle Brugge Prediction: Bet on goals in this fixture

At Den Dreef in Heverlee, Leuven will play Cercle Brugge in round 4 of the Jupiler Pro League. In their last meeting, Cercle Brugge secured maximum points on the road. Will Leuven be able to win revenge?

Leuven

Leuven's last league game was against Anderlecht, and they could only pick a point in the encounter. In that match, Anderlecht led in the 35th minute through Kasper Dolberg's strike. However, a 43rd-minute Mathieu Maertens strike was good enough to see this team avoid a defeat. Heading into this encounter, Leuven went unbeaten in their first three games, defeating Genk and drawing goalless with Beerschot VA in their opener. 

Cercle Brugge

Cercle Brugge secured a 1-0 win over Molde in the Europa League qualifier last week. Abdoul Kader Ouattara's lone strike in the 41st minute was the difference in that encounter. In the meantime, Cercle Brugge played Beerschot VA in their prior league encounter, and they secured a 4-1 win at home. This season, Cercle Brugge has 5 points accumulated from their first three games, which positions them 8th in the league standings.

Expert Betting Tips

Considering the two teams' qualities heading into this match, this is a tricky game. While Cercle Brugge is the better team, being on the road will be a tough job for them. However, Leuven has been a tough team, and I do not expect them to slack in this encounter. Expect the two teams to show character offensively, and with the two teams anticipated to be at their best, a 2-2 draw is a possible outcome.
