Preview: Club Brugge vs. Newcastle United

Sports Mole previews the Europa League Group D clash between Club Brugge and Newcastle United in Belgium.

Club Brugge welcome Newcastle United on Thursday looking to end a poor recent run of results which has seen them lose their last five matches in all competitions.

Brugge currently sit eighth in the Belgian league with 22 points from their opening 14 matches of the season, while they currently sit third in Group D of the Europa League.

Newcastle, meanwhile, have lost just one of their last five games in all competitions and they top the group with two wins from their first three matches.

Victory for the away side would place them in a commanding position with two matches remaining, but defeat could see them drop off top spot if Bordeaux beat Maritimo in Group D's other encounter.

Brugge have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the match and are expected to name their strongest side, but Newcastle will make a host of chances from their 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Sunday.

Recent form:

Brugge: LLLLL

Newcastle: LDWWD

Possible lineups:

Brugge: Jorgacevic; Almeback, Donk, Figueras, Hoefkens; Blondel, Meunier, Odjidja-Ofoe, Van Acker; Bacca, Tchite

Newcastle: Harper; Simpson, Perch, Williamson, Ferguson; Marveaux, Tiote, Anita, Obertan; Sa Ameobi, Sh Ameobi

Sports Mole says: 1-1
