💻 Celtic v Club Brugge Form and Tactics

Celtic made it 11 wins from 12 in the Scottish Premiership thanks to a 4-1 win at Hearts on Saturday. That was the latest in a long line of dominant displays from Celtic this season. Brendan Rodgers’ side produced a 3.50 xG output to Hearts’ tally of 0.85, with nine of their 13 attempts on goal hitting the target.

Celtic took a massive step towards securing a place in the Champions League knockout stage with a well-deserved 3-1 win over RB Leipzig on matchday four. It was Celtic’s best European performance under Rodgers across his two spells in charge. The Bhoys won the xG battle as well as the shot count 17-10, registering five on-target efforts, while Leipzig landed three.

The Scottish champions have earned 26 corners across their first four league phase games, a tally bettered by only six other teams at this stage of the competition.

Club Brugge moved within six points of Genk after putting seven goals past shellshocked Sint-Truiden in the Belgian Pro League on Saturday. As the scoreline would suggest, it was very much one-way traffic in favour of Club Brugge. They dominated possession (62%) and peppered their opponents goal with 19 shots, 11 of which worked the Sint-Truiden goalkeeper.

Club Brugge showed that they’re certainly no mugs when battling to a 1-0 win over Aston Villa on matchday four. Nicky Hayen’s side restricted Villa to 0.42 xG in what was a very impressive defensive display. The Belgian giants also hit the target with seven of their 13 shots during that contest.

The Blue-Black are just one of nine clubs that have received a red card across the opening four rounds of the league phase. However, it’s worth noting that Club Brugge have collected just seven yellow cards thus far.
