- Form: Club Brugge have won all three of their Pro League 2026/2027 games, but Gent are unbeaten with six points from two.
- Head-to-head: Club Brugge have won four of the last five head-to-head meetings and drew the other.
- Home record: Gent are winless in their last two home games against Club Brugge.
Brugge can pass Gent test
Club Brugge should see off KAA Gent in their attempt to extend a three-game winning streak at Planet Group Arena, Belgium on Sunday, but De Buffalo's will make a strong case for the draw in what should be an intriguing clash.
Blauw-Zwart have nine points from a possible nine at the top of the 2026/2027 Pro League table, while Gent are fifth with six from a maximum of six in two games.
Their last meeting three months ago was a 5-0 home win for Club Brugge in the First Division A – Championship Group 2026 and the visitors are certainly the more likely winners on Sunday.
Gent are good value for the double chance
But the hosts are unbeaten in five games with three wins and two draws, so it is tough to find a solid favorite at 1.8 for an away win in this clash.
Gent's price of 3.85 is a bit rich and the draw at 3.9 is also high, so we will take the double chance option.
- Gent should have enough to keep this game close, but Brugge look sharp enough to win it as they have three wins and just two defeats in their last five matches in all competitions.
- Brugge have one win and one defeat from two away games, so the road trip is always a test, but Rik De Mil's side have enough quality and solidity to stop Blauw-Zwart from running away with this.
Tresoldi to strike again for in-form Brugge
Recent form
Gent beat RAAL La Louviere 2-1 in their most recent Pro League game and followed that up with a 0-0 draw at home to Hibernian in a UEFA Conference League qualifier.
Brugge followed up with a 3-0 away win at OH Leuven and a 1-0 home win over Cercle Brugge last weekend.
Tactical outlook
Ivan Leko has got his side to play with an identity of flexible pressing, mixing up three and four-man set-ups to attack quickly and vertically, which should give them an advantage if they can get past Gent's first press.
De Mil's men are set up in a 3-4-2-1, with the wing-backs providing width and a solid block built to play on the transition phases.
Betting & players
Gent have scored just two goals in one home league game this season, while Brugge have kept a clean sheet in their only away game, so the over 2.5 goals bet, priced at 1.57, best matches the visitors' superior edge at the moment.
Nicolo Tresoldi, with three goals in three Pro League matches and four in five overall, is Brugge's red-hot finisher and the perfect scorer choice to outgun Ibrahima Cisse, who has one in two for Gent.
