Cercle Brugge will host Westerlo on Saturday

Cercle Brugge will host Westerlo at the Jan Breydel Stadium on Saturday in the final round of the 2022-23 Jupiler Pro League campaign.

The home side have had mixed results in the league this season and are out of contention for European football. They beat Westerlo 4-0 in their last game, with four different players getting on the scoresheet including the team's top scorer Ayase Ueda.

Cercle sit second in the qualifying round standings with 33 points. They will be looking to build on their latest result and end their season with a win in front of their home supporters.
