Match preview: CERCLE BRUGGE vs WESTERLO

CERCLE BRUGGE and Westerlo face off at Jan Breydelstadion in the 4th round of the 1E Klasse. Historically, the head-to-head record favours the home side, who have achieved 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss in their last 4 encounters. However, their last meeting at this venue on 16‑02‑2025 ended in a 1-1 draw, with goals from Alan Minda for CERCLE BRUGGE and Isa Sakamoto for Westerlo. The home advantage is likely to play a crucial role, as both teams exhibit marked differences in their home and away performances.

Team analysis: CERCLE BRUGGE

The hosts currently find themselves in 14th place, with just one point from 1 draw and 2 defeats. In their second-last match, they were defeated by Anderlecht (0-2) at home, and followed that up with a loss against Club Brugge (0-2). Typically stronger at home, they have recorded 6 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses in their last 30 matches at Jan Breydelstadion including 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses across all competitions in recent home games. Defensive susceptibility has been an issue, as evidenced by them conceding in 9 of their last 10 matches. During this stretch, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and failed to recover in any of those games.

CERCLE BRUGGE has struggled at the beginning of the season, lacking goals and only managing a solitary point. The team must show considerable improvement across all areas, especially in attack, to secure their first victory. Defensive vulnerabilities also need addressing to prevent more goals from being conceded. Playing at home, they will be under pressure to deliver a positive result, requiring greater organisation and intensity.

Team analysis: Westerlo

The visiting team is currently positioned 7th, having secured 3 points from 1 win and 2 losses. In their penultimate match, they triumphed against Zulte-Waregem (3-1) at home, only to lose to Mechelen (0-1) in their most recent outing. The team has traditionally performed better at their home ground, with a record of 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses over their last 30 games at home, compared to 4 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses as visitors. Their last away fixture in this competition ended in a disappointing 5-2 loss to Anderlecht. In the last 10 away matches, Westerlo has registered 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 defeats. With their defence leaking goals in 8 of their last 10 games, improvements are necessary, although their attack has been relatively consistent, managing to score in 8 of the last 10. They have conceded the first goal in 8 of 15 matches but managed to turn the match around only twice.

Westerlo’s current performance, with one victory and two losses, is acceptable yet needs to be improved. The team aims to score away from home, especially given their opponents’ current struggles. Achieving a good defensive line while capitalising on counter-attack opportunities will be essential. A positive result in this match could be crucial for bolstering confidence and enhancing their campaign.
