Preview
Zulte‑Waregem and Cercle Brugge face at Regenboogstadion, in a match for the 19th round of the First Division A. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 08‑11‑2020, Zulte‑Waregem got an away win by (1‑3). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 draw in the last 3 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 04‑07‑2020, in a match for the Club Friendlies, they tied (2‑2). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis ZW

The home team is currently in the 14th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 5 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Antwerp, by (0‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Sint‑Truiden, by (0‑2). 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 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 2 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses at their stadium. In the last 9 home league matches Zulte‑Waregem has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 27 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 7 home matches. 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 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 9 of the last 9 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Zulte-Waregem plays at home on this match and faces a direct opponent in the fight against relegation. Both teams have 18 points and are very close to the last places, so winning is essential. The home team should try to dominate the match, with strong marks in the midfield and possession of the ball to reach the rival's goal in conditions to score.

Confirmed Lineup: Louis Bostyn, Cameron Humphreys-Grant, Laurens De Bock, Daniel Opare, Olivier Deschacht, Omar Govea, Ibrahima Seck, Damien Marcq, Gianni Bruno, Jelle Vossen, Nikos Kainourgios.

Analysis Cercle Brugge

The away team is currently in the 13th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 6 wins and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against KV Oostende, by (0‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Sporting Charleroi, by (3‑4). This is a team that usually gets 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, with 17 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 5 wins, 1 draw and 9 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 28 conceded. Their last away match for this competition ended in a loss by (2‑1) against OH Leuven. In the last 8 away league matches Cercle Brugge has a record of 3 wins and 5 losses, so they have won 9 points out of 24 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 9 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Cercle Brugge hasn't won for five matches in the competition and sees the descent zone getting closer and closer. The team has a decisive match, away from home, and needs to win. Therefore, they need a technically flawless match, with intensity during the 90 minutes in order to not give any space to the opponent. In addition, they must exploit counterattacks very well to be able to score and secure the positive result.

Confirmed Lineup: Thomas Didillon, Vitinho, Jeremy Taravel, Giulian Biancone, Jean Marcelin, Charles Vanhoutte, Dimitar Velkovski, Kevin Hoggas, Anthony Musaba, Kylian Hazard, Ike Ugbo.
Coach: P. Clement.
