Gent vs Club Brugge KV
Match Preview
Gent host Club Brugge on Sunday in what's billed as the season's first Super Sunday, with both sides eager to set an early tone in the Pro League. Gent sit fourth after two wins from two, while last season's champions Club Brugge look to keep pace at the top. Gent have started brightly, beating KV Mechelen and RAAL La Louvière with goals from Tiago Araújo, Josué Vergara, Momodou Sonko and Ibrahima Cissé, and are unbeaten in five games across all competitions. New arrivals László Bénes and Christian Burgess have settled in fast. Club Brugge have looked even sharper, hammering Kortrijk and OH Leuven 3-0 apiece, with Nicolò Tresoldi picking up where he left off after 19 league goals last season and Hans Vanaken still running midfield. History leans heavily toward the visitors as well: Club Brugge have 29 wins from 59 meetings and haven't lost to Gent in seven straight encounters, winning five and drawing two. Our prediction: 1-2
