Goal Statistics

KAA Gent's defensive record is to be admired, R. Demil's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Pro League games. An average PG rating of 1.4 for Cercle Brugge makes sense in this context.

KAA Gent's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday lunch time, not least because Cercle Brugge have conceded in each of their last 8 Pro League outings. A PG of 1.5 for R. Demil's side suggests that run should continue.
