Matchday 2 of the Belgium Pro League sees Groen en Zwart welcome Paars-wit to Jan Breydelstadion. Anderlecht will be looking to extend their strong start to the campaign after a dominant opening fixture, while Cercle Brugge aims to avoid another humbling like the one they suffered last season. Keep reading to find out our Cercle Brugge vs Anderlecht match prediction.
Anderlecht opened the new season with an emphatic 5-2 victory over Westerlo, putting them top of the league on goal difference. Paars-wit showed their attacking depth by scoring five goals, continuing their streak of having found the net in ten straight games and 14 of their last 15 competitive fixtures.
Despite their Europa League qualifier loss to Hacken, Anderlecht had been unbeaten in seven matches prior, winning five of those. In contrast, Cercle Brugge needed a man-of-the-match performance from their goalkeeper to escape with a 1-1 draw against a weaker Dender.
Groen en Zwart are now winless in four straight matches and have lost six of their last ten. Last season, Anderlecht beat Cercle Brugge 3-0 at home and thrashed them 5-0 away, results that point clearly to where this fixture could be headed.

Our Cercle Bruges vs Anderlecht Prediction
Paars-wit are in excellent early-season form, both statistically and in terms of confidence, following their five-goal opener. Cercle Brugge, on the other hand, continues to struggle with creativity and execution in the final third.
Even home advantage hasn’t shielded Cercle from heavy losses, as seen in last season’s 5-0 demolition by Anderlecht in Bruges. Given the sharp attacking rhythm of Anderlecht and Cercle’s limited firepower, this matchup looks poised to follow the same script. Hence, our Cercle Brugge vs Anderlecht prediction is Anderlecht to win.
