Preview: Club Brugge - Anderlecht

GAMES This afternoon at 6 pm, the top game Club Brugge - Anderlecht is on the program at the Jan Breydel stadium. Anderlecht hopes for a stunt against the smoothly running national champion. The people of Bruges even have the luxury of leaving Mbaye Diagne next to the selection.


Diagne was on his way to Anderlecht at the end of August, but Vincent Mannaert took him from Anderlecht at the last minute. His presence had given the game extra pigment, but coach Philippe Clement considers other offensive players better. Also striking: the Bruges sickbay is completely empty.

At Anderlecht, Vincent Kompany is back in the selection after missing a few games with an injury to the hamstrings. Adrien Trebel, who had to leave but did not get away, is allowed to play again and is in the selection for the first time this season. He may even start now that Albert Sambi Lokonga is injured and Peter Zulj is recovering from a broken nose.

The match in Bruges is too early for Kemar Roofe. Samir Nasri also falls next to the selection for the second week in a row due to not being fit enough.

Finally: the referee will be Alexandre Boucaut. He is not a welcome figure in Bruges. The Club fans have been thinking for years that he is whistling against them. Wondering if his performance will soon be a topic for discussion.
