Jordan Torunarigha struck first for Gent in the 26th minute from the penalty spot, then Laurent Depoitre added another in the 40th minute In the end, AS Eupen was frustrated by Gent’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board.

These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Lambert Boris and Konan N’Dri are the top scorers for AS Eupen in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Dino Hotić has been the most effective weapon for Cercle Brugge lately. The Slovenian midfielder has netted three goals in his last five matches.
