Pre-season

It was announced that Cercle Brugge would play ten matches in preparation for the 2014-15 season, with games against Damme, Oudenburg, Deinze, Sterk Door Combinatie Putten, Vitesse Arnhem, Mechelen, Roeselare, Westerlo, Eendracht Aalst and Al Shabab with the pre-season matches starting from 21 June 2014 and ending on 20 July 2014.[1]

Cercle Brugge's pre-season matches got off to a high-scoring start, with the club scoring seventeen goals in two matches. It started on 21 June with a 0-7 win away to Damme, with new signings Richard Sukuta-Pasu and Stipe Bačelić-Grgić grabbing a goal each along with Karel Van Roose, Bart Buysse, Tim Smolders and a brace from Stephen Buyl.[2] They followed that up with a convincing 0-10 win over Oudenburg, Stephen Buyl scored twice for the second match running while Junior Kabananga scored a hat-trick with the other goals coming from Lukas Van Eenoo, Stephen Buyl, Thibaut Van Acker, Ayron Verkindere and Stipe Bačelić-Grgić.[3]

They continued their fine scoring form into their next two pre-season friendlies, firstly playing out a thrilling 3-4 win against Deinze in a match played at Zeveren Sportief's ground.[4] Followed by a 0-6 win against Sterk Door Combinatie Putten.[5] On 4 July, they drew 1-1 with Eredivisie side Vitesse Arnhem, Stef Wils got Cercle Brugge's only goal of the game to earn a draw at the GelreDome.[6] That was followed by a second consecutive draw when the club tied 0-0 with fellow Belgian Pro League side Mechelen.[7] Cercle Brugge returned to winning ways when they earned a 3-0 victory over Roeselare, with the goals coming from Hans Cornelis, Noë Dussenne and Tim Smolders.[8]

Cercle Brugge failed to find a win in their last two pre-season friendlies, on 17 July they suffered a 0-2 loss to Eendracht Aalst followed by a 1-1 draw three days later to Al Shabab on 20 July at Jan Breydel Stadium.[9][10]
