Our prediction for this Belgium Pro League match:
All eyes will be on Lotto Park when Anderlecht and Gent face each other in the Jupiler League round 5. Anderlecht aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Royale Union SG, and you should know that they are eyeing their third home win of the process. Midfielder Adrien Trebel is sidelined with injury, but there are no suspended players in the home team. The visitors, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Antwerp.
Since Gent will go for a win in Wednesday’s clash as well, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. Tarik Tissoudali is sidelined with injuries, while both Elisha Owusu and Julien de Sart are rated doubtful for the match. In their last meeting in the Belgian top flight Gent defeated Anderlecht 1-0.
Highlighted Player (Lior Refaelov):
Lior Refaelov is an Israeli footballer playing as an attacking midfielder for the Belgium giants with whom he has been a mainstay since his arrival in 2011. Rafaelov began his career at Maccabi Haifa where he played 161 league appearances and scored 30 goals before moving to Belgium.
The experienced 30-year-old Israel international has made his senior debut for his country in 2007 and has since earned over 30 caps for Israel. Lior Rafaelov is a player of vast international experience despite the fact Club Brugge are his first and so far only club in Europe.
The 30-year-old attacking midfielder is a major force upfront who has scored six times during Brugge’s Europa League campaign in 2014-15, while he also scored the winner in the Belgian Cup final to earn his club a first trophy in eight years. Last season Rafaleov repeated the feat, having scored in the 2016 Belgian Cup Final, but it wasn’t enough for Club Brugge to avoid getting defeated 2-1 to Standard Liege.
