Saturday, the 2020-2021 season of the Belgian championship begins with a meeting between Club Brugge and Charleroi. Both teams will want to start this new season.
Arriving well at the top of the standings with 15 points ahead of its first competitor, Club Brugge was awarded the title of Belgian champion quite logically despite the final interruption of the season. After a fairly complete preparation marked by a record of 5 wins, a draw, and a defeat against La Gantoise (2-3), the former opponents of PSG in C1 were beaten by Royal Antwerp in the Cup final last week (0 -1) and will, therefore, have to react well in the league.
For its part, Charleroi also stood out last year in this Belgian championship. Indeed, Sporting ranked in 3rd place behind Club Bruges and Gantoise with a total of 54 units on the clock after 29 games played. Less consistent in preparation than his daytime opponent, he suffered major setbacks against Saint-Etienne (4-0) or Metz (3-0) and ended with a draw obtained against AC Ajaccio (2-2).
Absent last week, striker Dennis and defenders Ricca and Balanta are hoped for this meeting. Last year’s top two scorers, Vanaken (13 goals) and Okereke (9 goals) both stayed with the club this summer and Iranian top scorer Rezaei (12 goals last year) joined the team in from Charleroi.
Charleroi is still deprived of its long-time injured midfielder Massimo Bruno and less important defender Diandy. The team will have to recover from the departure of its best firefighter Rezaei who has, therefore, joined Bruges.
The coaches have the possibility of making only 3 substitutions during the game.
This meeting will take place behind closed doors.
Despite their defeat in the cup final last week, Club Brugge seems better equipped than their opponents to take victory in this match. Club Bruges victory!
