Club Brugge KV
- Second-placed Club Brugge KV are 19 points better off than ninth-placed KVC Westerlo on 57 points from 28 games, with the hosts on 38 points from the same number of matches.
- Club Brugge KV have won four and drawn one of their last five league games.
- Both Issame Charai, who took over at Westerlo in July 2025, and Ivan Leko, who took the reins at Brugge in August of the same year, have instilled a very different playing style in their respective clubs.
- Charai has gone for a pragmatic, transition-first approach that plays on the wings and gets men behind the ball quickly.
- Leko’s men have more of a possession-based style, although they are not averse to putting a player on the ball and pressing a little bit if things get bogged down.
- Brugge have also been very good at keeping the tempo of the game and launching their attacking moves before their opponents are fully organised.
