Head-to-head statistics Club Brugge - Anderlecht

A perfect autumn
Brugge’s away win over PSV on 4 November 2026 came despite the shot count: they won their latest Champions League match 2:1, although they were outshot 10:27. PSV also led on expected goals, 3.11 to 1.11, and Brugge had to make seven saves.
Brugge are showing impressive consistency: they have won nine of their last 10 matches and taken maximum points in each of their last five. Their average of 2.9 goals per game across those 10 matches underlines their attacking strength. At home, Brugge regularly score more than 2.5 goals, as the trend in the top division confirms. Their defence also looks reliable, conceding just 0.8 goals per match on average. They remain motivated by their league position: Brugge are fighting for the lead and have not dropped points at the start of the season.

Alternates between wins and losses
Anderlecht beat Red Bull Salzburg 2-0 at home 5 November 2026 in their most recent Europa League match. The visitors had more possession (56%) and attacked more often, but Anderlecht had more shots on target, 7-3, and kept a clean sheet.
Anderlecht have been less convincing this season: six wins and four defeats in their last ten matches, although they have won three of their last five. Their averages of 1.7 goals scored and 1.1 conceded per match suggest a decent balance, but their attack cannot compete with Brugge's. Their motivation in the standings is limited: they are already seven points behind the Champions League places, and their level of motivation is rated as low. This could affect the tempo of their play against a team among the leaders.
Match Results: Anderlecht
Prediction for the 1st half
Brugge have won the first half in seven of their last eight home league matches. They have also scored before half-time in 11 of their last 12 meetings with Anderlecht. That second statistic does not, on its own, guarantee a half-time lead, but it supports backing Brugge to win the first half at odds of 1.83*.
Match Result Prediction
Club Brugge have won 11 consecutive home league matches. This season, they have won all five of their home games, while Anderlecht have lost three of their five away matches. These figures provide grounds for backing Club Brugge to win at odds of 1.49*.
Total Goals Prediction
Anderlecht have scored fewer than 1.5 goals in seven of their last eight away league matches. This season, they have averaged 0.6 goals per away match, while Brugge have conceded an average of 0.6 goals at home. Therefore, we pick Anderlecht Team Total Goals - Under 1.5 at odds of 1.36*.
Corners Prediction
Anderlecht have taken more than 3.5 corners in seven consecutive league matches. However, they have stayed below that mark in six of their last seven away head-to-head meetings. Given this contrast, the bet on Anderlecht Team Total Corners - Over 3.5 at odds of 1.67* rests primarily on their current run and calls for caution.
High-Risk Bet
In five of their last six home head-to-head meetings, Club Brugge both scored and conceded in the second half. In those meetings, Club Brugge scored after the break six times in a row and conceded in ten of 11. However, Anderlecht scored fewer than 1.5 goals in seven of their last eight away league matches, so there is still considerable uncertainty around the bet Both Teams to Score in the Second Half - Yes at odds of 2.53*.
Safer Bet
Brugge have won 11 consecutive home league matches and are unbeaten in their five home games this season. They have also avoided defeat in 14 of their last 15 home head-to-head meetings with Anderlecht. For the Brugge to Win or Draw bet at odds of 1.13*, a home win is not required - a draw is enough.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the top three scorelines are 1:0 (13.96%), 2:0 (10.65%) and 1:1 (9.47%). Of these, 1:0 is the most likely. Two of the three scorelines indicate a Brugge win.
*The odds are approximate and may vary between bookmakers.*
⭐ Editor's Pick
Brugge's form and the home side's attacking strength make them favourites for this match. They are winning confidently at home, consistently scoring more than two goals, as reflected in their home scoring trend. Anderlecht are less consistent and cannot claim to have strong motivation in the league at this stage of the season. Given the trend for the home side to score over 2.5 goals, the editors' pick is Brugge Team Total Goals - Over 2.5.
