MONS V CERCLE BRUGGE PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

Mons is currently sitting in the 10^th position of this Jupiler League. So far, they won 5 times, got 3 draws, and also lost 5 times. Even if they’re in 10^th position, they are still juts 5 points away from the 3^rd spot, so it’s not too late to have bigger ambitions. Cercle Brugge is still in a very dangerous 15^th position, which means in the relegation zone. They have a record of 2-1-10 and are already 6 points away from the first team above them.

On their pitch, Mons has a good record of 4-1-2, with a win in their last 3 home games over Beerschot, Standard Liege and Kortrijk. Cercle Brugge has a terrible record when they play away, they still haven’t won, drew once and lost already 5 times.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Enzo Scifo’s players won their last game, 1-0 over Kortrijk, thanks to a penalty from their French striker, Jeremy Perbet. If we include the Belgian Cup, Mons won their last 4 home games, scoring a total of 8 goals and conceding only one. They have a good organization and usually don’t give their opponents a lot of opportunities to score.

Cercle Brugge managed to take the points at home, over Beerschot in their last fixture, but Beerschhot is in a terrible run as well, so it doesn’t mean either that Brugge’s players found the solution to their issues. They are still looking for a first away win, but their defense looks too poor to think about it. They concede an average of 2.83 goals when they play away.

MONS V CERCLE BRUGGE PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Mons has a very interesting odd of 1.94 to win that game, with Pinnacle. The draw is set at 3.81 with the same book, and a first away win for Cercle Brugge is at 4, again with Pinnacle. I would, without much hesitation, back the home team here.

MONS V CERCLE BRUGGE PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

Mons -0.5 is at 1.94 with pinnacle, which makes no difference with the 1X2 market. Brugge +0.5 can be found at 2 with 188bet. As above, I back the home side.

MONS V CERCLE BRUGGE PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

The Over 2.5 goals is favorite, at 1.7 with Betfair, and the Under 2.5 can be found at 2.3 with Bwin. Mons’ games have an average of 3.5 goals, and Cercle Brugge’s ones have an average of 3.2, so the Over sounds like a good idea.
