THE MATCH

Our second move of the season also means the 13th confrontation with OHL in First Division. The six previous away games were neatly split between the two teams. Both OHL and Club won 3 times. Last season Blauw-Zwart achieved 4 out of 6 against the Leuveners. At Jan Breydel it was 1-1, in Leuven a clear 1-4 was on the scoreboard after 90 minutes. The Bruges goals then came from Noa Lang, Ruud Vormer and (2x) Charles De Ketelaere.

This season Club already had 94 ball keys in the opponent's box. Only KRC Genk did better (106). While no team had to allow more ball touches in their own sixteen than OHL (94).

For Kamal Sowah and Denis Odoi, it is a reunion with their ex-club.

THE OPPONENT

Despite a 2-4 defeat at Antwerp last week, OHL made its best start ever in the Jupiler Pro League with 6 out of 9. They won their first two games 2-0 each time. Of their last 8 home games in the league, OHL won 5 of them.

With 21-year-old Louis Patris, who has been with the club since he was 14, OHL has the assist king (3 assists) in its own ranks. With also a goal against Antwerp, he is the player most often involved in a goal in the Pro League, together with Mike Trésor and Cyriel Dessers of KRC Genk (also 4 goals involved).

MECHELE

Brandon Mechele can play his 330th game for Club Brugge. For Noa Lang, it could be his 90th time in action at Blauw-Zwart. He can also play his 70th league game. Clinton Mata can play his 130th league game at FCB.

THE REFEREE

Referee on duty is Lothar D'Hondt, who is assisted by assistants Romain Devillers and Philippe Vandecauter. Club's 5 previous away matches under his direction ended in 4 wins and 1 draw.
