In the last 5 meetings, Oud-Heverlee Leuven have 0W 1D 4L against Brugge. Total goals 11 (2-9); both teams scored in 2 of 5.
Brugge have the cleaner starting point. Their 3-0 opening win put them straight into the top two, and the away price of 1.47 keeps them firmly in control of the pre-match prediction. Leuven's recent form line is more balanced at 2W 1D 2L, but the bigger concern is defensive: they are conceding 2.2 goals on average across their last five matches and shipped 3 in their first league outing.
Leuven do carry a threat. Their own recent scoring average sits at 2.2, so this does not read like a one-sided shutout call. Brugge's last-five numbers are not flawless either, with 1.8 goals conceded on average, and that leaves room for the home side to get on the scoresheet. Still, the table, the opening-week result and the odds all point the same way in this preview.
Brugge should have enough quality to take the points, with Brugge to win - Expected score: 1-2.
