Anderlecht need just one point from their final two games to secure fourth spot and a place in the Conference League playoff. Moreover, they have a five-point cushion over fifth-placed Antwerp, so they can afford to drop points if the Reds don't win their two remaining games.
Club Brugge, for their part, are seeking to successfully retain their league title but do not have their destiny in their hands. They need to win here while hoping that Antwerp do them a favor against Royale Union.
