Saint-Truiden will face Cercle Brugge in the match of the 17th round of the Belgian Championship. We analyze the form of the teams and evaluate the chances of success.
"Saint-Truiden"
In the previous two rounds, Saint-Truiden played away, but this did not prevent him from scoring six points. First, we managed to beat Westerlo (3-2), and then Victoria was obtained in the confrontation with Seren United (2-1). Thanks to two positive results "Saint-Truiden" broke into the European Cup zone, located in the eighth position. But the situation is shaky, because "AH Leven" and "Cercle Brugge" are coming on their heels, which have a score less.
Cercle Bruges
If at the start of the championship, Cercle Brugge sought to at least leave the relegation zone, in which it found itself after a number of unsuccessful matches, now it is also one of the contenders for a place in the top 8. In the round before last, Cercle Brugge failed to score three points, playing 1-1 with Kortrijk, but in the next round returned to the winning path, coping with AH Leuven (2-1). Cercle Brugge approaches the reporting match with a series of five matches without losses, four of which were won.

Forecast
Both teams are in excellent shape, so in the upcoming meeting I propose to put more than 2 on the total.
