Lommel vs Club Brugge KV

Lommel SK host Club Brugge on September 4 in one of the standout fixtures of Lommel's first Pro League season in 23 years. Club Brugge sit top of the table as reigning champions, while Lommel are mid-table after a mixed return to the top flight, an early gauge of the promoted side's progress. Club Brugge have been ruthless, beating Kortrijk 3-0, winning 3-0 at OH Leuven, and edging Cercle Brugge 1-0, with Nicolò Tresoldi leading the line and Carlos Forbs pulling the strings under coach Ivan Leko. Lommel have been choppier, thumping Westerlo 4-0 before losing 0-1 to Charleroi, with Tom Reyners on the scoresheet and Jason van Duiven creating chances for Lee Johnson's side. This clash also falls inside a tough week for Lommel, sandwiched around a trip to Cercle Brugge. Our prediction: 1-3
