A sense of anticipation builds as the upcoming encounter sees Lokeren and Cercle Brugge are set to clash again, 7 months after their previous First Division A meeting which Cercle Brugge won 3-2. Lokeren are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to Genk, Anderlecht, Mouscron and Standard. Tightening up at the back might be their best chance to shift momentum, especially given the fact they've had trouble holding their opponents at bay, having conceded goals in each of their last ten matches.
