Cercle Bruges vs Molde Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Ian John | in Europa League Predictions
FK Molde holds all the aces from the first match in this two-legged Europa League Third qualifying round tie. Cercle Bruges was on the end of a 3-0 thumping from the first leg, and even the most optimistic prediction has the Belgian side struggling to progress. Can De Vereniging launch a massive comeback in the home leg, or will MFK prevail?
Cercle Bruges faced Scottish side Kilmarnock in their opening Europa League qualifying tie, defeating the Scottish side 2-1 on aggregate. However, their domestic form hasn't been great. In three games in the Belgian Pro League, they have won once and lost twice. Thus, their 3-0 defeat to Molde FK in the first leg wasn't a complete surprise.
However, they did bounce back from that loss to record a thumping 4-1 win over Beerschot this past Sunday. This result should give them a much-needed confidence boost ahead of the pivotal second leg.
FK Molde started the first leg of this tie in sensational form, scoring all three goals inside the first half-hour of the contest. They then negated Cercle's infrequent attacks to take full control of this tie. Before that win, they defeated Danish side Silkeborg 5-4 on aggregate to reach the Third qualifying round.
Domestically, Molde sits fourth in the Eliteserien in Norway, ten points behind leaders Bodo/Glimt after 18 games. They were in action on Sunday away to Lillestrom and earned a hard-fought 2-1 win thanks to goals in added time at the end of both halves. The first was scored by Frederik Ihler, and the second by Kristian Eriksen.
