Anderlecht
All eyes will be on Jan Breydel Stadion when Club Brugge and Anderlecht face each other in the Jupiler League derby. Club Brugge clinched their 18th domestic trophy thanks to a 3-1 win over Antwerp, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the visit of Anderlecht. Clinton Mata, who limped off with injury at the weekend, has joined Mats Rits in the recovery room, while Canada international Tajon Buchanan is back from suspension.
The capital club, on the other hand, booked their place in the Conference League despite suffering a 2-0 loss to Royale Union in their last group game. Anyhow, home win should be considered as the title holders want to put icing on the cake on yet another successful season. As for the visiting team, Panama defender Michael Murillo is banned, while all Ashimeru, Debast, Lissens, Raman, and Sardella have been struggling with injuries of late.
Highlighted Player (Simon Mignolet):
Simon Luc Hildebert Mignolet is a Belgium goalkeeper born on 6 March 1988 in Sint-Truiden. He began his career in a club from his hometown, making 100 league appearances for Sint-Truidense before moving to Sunderland in 2010.
Mignolet would go on to spent next four years at the Stadium of Light, making 90 Premier League appearances. As one of world’s most talented goalkeepers, the Belgium international signed for Liverpool in the summer of 2013, and he has since been the club’s first choice goalkeeper. Performing admirably most of the time, but also committing cheap mistakes at times, Mignolet has yet to win over the Liverpool fans, but remains highly regarded in his native country.
The talented shot-stopper has been a member of the Belgium national team since 2011, earning over 20 caps for the Red Devils, but he has been playing second fiddle to Chelsea star Thibaut Courtois over the last few years.
Highlighted Team (Anderlecht):
Founded on 27 May, 1908, Anderlecht are considered one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Paars-wit are the dominant force in the Belgian Pro League and in 2014 they won their 33rd domestic trophy. Anderlecht did remarkably well to win the UEFA Super Cup title in 1983, with the team defeating Benfica in the final of the competition.
The Belgian outfit recorded a 1-0 over the Eagles in the first leg, with the two teams playing out a 1-1 draw in the return leg. Anderlecht play their home games at Constant Vanden Stock Stadium, the venue that was opened in 1917. The stadium was renovated in 1983 and current capacity of Anderlecht’s home ground is 28 063.
The Paars-wit have long-standing rivalries with the likes of Standard Liege and Club Brugge, whilst FC Brussels were considered the club’s bitter opponents in the past. The likes of Besnik Hasi, Lucas Biglia, Filip De Wilde and Romelu Lukaku are some of Anderlecht’s notable players.
