RFC Seraing vs Club Brugge
Brugge are on a five-game winning run across competitions and need a win to avoid falling further off the pace as they look to defend their league crown.
Seraing, meanwhile, have improved in recent weeks but are unlikely to match the intensity of their visitors. Brugge should claim a comfortable win in a high-scoring game.
Prediction: RFC Seraing 1-3 Club Brugge
