Gent vs Club Brugge Prediction and Betting Tips | January 16th 2024

Gent will host Club Brugge at the Ghelamco Arena on Tuesday in the quarterfinals of the 2023-24 Beker van Belgie campaign.

The home side are enjoying a good run of results in the Jupiler Pro League at the moment but will turn their attention to cup action this week. They kicked off their Beker van Belgie campaign with a 3-1 win over Patro before beating Sint-Truidense 1-0 in the competition last time out, with former Olympiakos man Hugo Cuypers scoring the sole goal of the game.

Club Brugge, meanwhile, thrashed second-tier Beerschot 6-0 in the opening round of the cup competition with four different players getting on the scoresheet including Andreas Skov Olsen and Hugo Vetlesen who netted braces. They then beat Zulte Waregem 4-0 in the next round of the tournament, with Skov Olsen once again scoring a double.

The visitors are the record winners of the cup competition but have failed to lift the title since the 2014-15 campaign. They will be looking to end that run this season but must first see off Gent on Tuesday.
