THE PREDICTION

Hearts would have been in mouths at Union Saint-Gilloise after their 0-0 draw at Antwerp last Sunday afternoon but they remain three points clear of title rivals Club Brugge after the reigning champions failed to capitalise with another 0-0 at Anderlecht later that day. This is the first of a double-header between the two sides still capable of winning the Belgian Pro League, with what is essentially a second-leg for the title coming in the reverse fixture next weekend, and hosts USG have lost just one of their last 10 league games here to suggest they can avoid defeat at the least. The leaders are better on the road, too, which makes this a must-win for Club Brugge as they take a seven-match unbeaten streak on the road to this likely thriller. The visitors won 0-1 here back in August and were held to a 0-0 draw in the reverse, suggesting that goals could be at a premium here. It looks a tricky call any which way but perhaps taking Club Brugge to avoid defeat with double chance is the sensible move ahead of better options next week.
