The game against Club Brugge will be difficult especially when things are not really going well and their win against Chelsea doesn't really mean it will be better because we saw the disappointing performance of the Blues on that game. I believe the Club Brugge team/manager must have watch the match between City and Chelsea, and must have seen the errors by the Blues thereby making ways to avoid them.
If we look at the stats on the UCL matches, Club Brugge looks better than Man City. They got 3 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses. Meanwhile Man City only got 2 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses. Also, Club Brugge is in 2nd place on his domestic league (Belgian Pro League). However, Man City is surely better if we consider the squad quality, Man City is playing in the most competitive league in the world as well. In addition, the match will be held in Man City home, too. This will bring an advantage for Man City, they have an extra motivation to win because they don't want to get a lose in front of their home base fans and Man City board. Another advantage, Man City will be easy to prepare everything because they don't need to go anywhere. And I think Man City players' mentality is better now after they got some positive results on the few latest matches. So, based on these considerations, I assume Man City can deal with the situation and beat Club Brugge. It may not be an easy match, but Man City probably can win with narrow score at least.

In every match, there will be always unexpected situation but Pep must have prepared anything for the prevention. And surely a manager or coach of each team must learn the matches of their opponents, it is something usual. Not only for Club Brugge manager/coach, it also applies for Pep Guardiola as a manager/coach of Man City.
