Preview
Mechelen and Cercle Brugge meet at AFAS‑stadion Achter de Kazerne, in a match for the 3rd round of the First Division A. The head‑to‑head history of the last 3 years favours the home team, since in the last 3 matches they won 2 and lost 1. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 08‑02‑2020, and ended in a (3‑2) win by Cercle Brugge. Mechelen registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Mechelen

Currently in the 5th position of the league, the home team has conquered 4 points so far. In the 1st round, they tied at home against Anderlecht by (2‑2). In the following round, the final score was a (0‑1) win in an away match against Royal Excel Mouscron. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 1 draw and 8 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home matches Mechelen has won 3, tied 3 and lost 4. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 12 of the last 17 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

Mechelen won a big victory in the last round and that ends up motivating. Now, they come after their first victory at their stadium and know that it is possible to happen. They want to remain undefeated in the championship and will depend only on themselves to make it happen. Therefore, they should show imposition and determination throughout the confrontation, as this way they will have a better chance of adding the three points. On the other hand, if they are inattentive or careless, they may end up getting more in trouble.

Confirmed Lineup: Gaëtan Coucke, Lucas Bijker, Rocky Bushiri Kiranga, Issa Kabore, Thibault Peyre, Geoffry Hairemans, Aster Vranckx, Rob Schoofs, Joachim Van Damme, Nikola Storm, William Togui.
Coach: S. Defour.

Analysis Cercle Brugge

The away team is currently in the ª position of the league, no points won yet. In their debut they lost in an away match against Standard Liège, by (1‑0). In the second round, they won in a home match against Antwerp, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 25 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Cercle Brugge has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches.

Cercle Brugge, like their opponent, also comes from an important victory. This can be positive in the psychological aspect of the players, as it will take concentration to try to surprise. There is no weight on athletes' shoulders, so they just need work with quality and efficiency to achieve a good result. Winning is really ideal for them, but they cannot dismiss a draw as positive.

Confirmed Lineup: Thomas Didillon, Naomichi Ueda, Robbe Decostere, Jeremy Taravel, Dino Hotić, Dimitar Velkovski, Johanna Ochieng Omolo, Kevin Hoggas, Charles Vanhoutte, Kylian Hazard, Ike Ugbo.
Coach: D. Thalhammer.
