Royal Antwerp vs Club Brugge Prediction and Betting Tips | February 5th 2023

Royal Antwerp and Club Brugge go head-to-head at the Bosuilstadion in round 24 of the Belgian Jupiler League on Sunday.

The hosts head into the weekend off the back of a semi-final exit from the Belgian Cup and will be looking to return to winning ways.

Royal Antwerp were dumped out of the Belgian Cup last Wednesday when they fell to a 1-0 loss against Union Saint-Gilloise.

They have returned their focus to the Jupiler League, where they are unbeaten in their last three matches, claiming seven points from a possible nine.

Royal Antwerp are currently third in the league standings after picking up 46 points from 23 matches.

Elsewhere, Club Brugge finally stopped the rot as they secured a hard-earned 2-1 win at Zulte Waregem last time out.

Prior to that, the Blauw-Zwart were winless in eight consecutive matches, a run which saw them bow out of the Belgian Cup following a disappointing 4-1 loss against Sint-Truidense.

With 40 points from 23 matches, Club Brugge are currently fourth in the Jupiler League table, two points above Gent outside the Champions League playoff spot.
