We said: Cercle Brugge 2-0 Kortrijk

After a morale-boosting European success on Thursday night, Cercle Brugge should be raring to collect their first maximum of the Pro League season. Kortrijk were toothless in attack last weekend, and they could struggle even more on the road, so we are predicting another loss for Der Kerels. Read more.
