Celtic vs Club Brugge KV Prediction & Betting Tips (27 November)

Celtic are back on a winning pace in the Premiership, with 10 wins and a draw in 11 games, but are unexpectedly followed by Aberdeen with the same number of points. It was recently Kilmarnock who suffered the law of the strongest 0-2, and precisely Aberdeen in the League Cup 6-0, proof that this team should remain sovereign in its championship. In C1, it's also solid with two successes at home against Slovan Bratislava 5-1 and Leipzig just before the break 3-1, but a little more complicated away with a bitter defeat at Dortmund 7-1 to forget, but still a solid draw obtained in Bergamo against Atalanta 0-0 . Which currently places them 15th in the qualifying places for the play-offs.

This is not the case for Club Bruges in the championship, since the Belgians are already 6 points behind leader Genk. 3rd, Bruges still lost valuable points before the break against promoted Beerschot 2-2, but still remains undefeated since September in the league. In the Champions League, two fairly logical defeats against Dortmund 0-3 and AC Milan 3-1 were conceded, but successes against Sturm Graz 0-1 and especially Aston Villa 1-0 more recently, placed them in the 24, which provisionally qualifies them for the play-offs. 

It is an almost complete Celtic team which should present itself, since only the rotation player Holm is doubtful because of his calf injury. Indeed, experienced players like McGregor (captain), defender Carter-Vickers, or former Nice goalkeeper Schmeichel will be present and should start. Boys in form like Engels (1 goal, 3 assists in C1) recently called up to the Belgian team, or even Kuhn (10 goals, 7 assists TCC) could also be lined up. It remains to be seen whether it is Idah (5 goals) or Furuhashi (6 goals, 3 assists) who will start at the forefront, they who are in competition. Achilles tendon injury, Nilsson will probably not be there for this meeting, but he should be the only one absent from the Belgian side.

There are some good people in this team, just in defense with the young Ecuadorian international Ordonez, and the now starting full-back in the Belgium team, De Cuyper, will hold their place well. The triangle which is the offensive strength of this team is made up of captain Vanaken (5 goals, 4 assists TCC), and the two wingers Tzolis (4 goals, 2 assists TCC) and Skov Olsen (5 goals, 1 assist in the league). It is at the forefront that it seems a little limited with the absence of Nilsson, with the Catalan Jutgla who has still not scored this season, now competing with the youngster from the academy Vermant, already 2 goals in the league.
