With two rounds to go in the Belgium title playoffs everything is on the line, as Anderlecht, Brugge and Standard are separated by just 2 points. Club Brugge can’t afford any slip ups today when they travel at the weakest team in these playoffs, Genk.
Genk was the 6th best team in the Belgium Jupiler League regular season and they maintained the same line in the playoffs, where they will almost surely finish last. Five points away from 5th place Lokeren, Genk posted a statline of 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses so far, including losing the last 2 games and being drubbed 4-0 by Anderlecht last round. Genk will play this game for pride, not much else at stake for them today.

Brugge is tied in points with Anderlecht at the top of the table but is trailing due to goal difference direct results. Right now odds are Anderlecht will win it, but Brugge still has every chance for a late rally. The visitors need 2 wins in the last 2 games and if they beat Genk today they might move up to the first place considering that Anderlecht has a very tough game against Zulte Waregem this round. Brugge played 2 massive games in the last 2 rounds, losing to Anderlecht but then recovering to beat Standard, so they will be in good spirits for the Genk encounter.
Club Brugge already defeated Genk twice this season, 2-0 at home and 3-1 on the road. Two rather easy wins and my input it we might well have the same outcome this time around.
The quality here is on Brugge’s side, no doubt about that, and the visitors are by far the more motivated side. Club Brugge has looked really good in these playoffs and I find it hard to believe they will lose the title against a side that has nothing left to fight for. These two teams did not look to care much if they play home or away in the last weeks and I reckon Brugge will be able to win this on the road. My tip is Club Brugge to win, I expect an intelligent performance from the visitors, keeping a clean sheet and putting pressure on the offensive end until they get the required goal / goals. The odds are fair for this bet. Prediction: Racing Genk – Club Brugge 0-2.

it not the goal difference that separate the teams it s the match between them.so brugge can win with 10-0,if it will be tie points that anderlecht are champions because was 3-0 and 1-0 wins for them against brugge.
analyse better next time, my friend
you are right mate, I corrected the error now. I actually planned to check after I wrote the pick but I forgot. I did not suggest Brugge can win the title if they remain tied in points, but nevertheless it was a mistake, thanks for the heads up.
