Prediction: 1-2
Anderlecht
Sunday’s football game at Den Dreef pits together Leuven and Anderlecht, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the second half of the season. Leuven’s main goal is to secure the Jupiler League survival, while Anderlecht are eyeing a spot in European competitions. The good news for the hosts is that Uruguay defender Federico Ricca has overcome his injury, but midfielder Kento Misao remains on the sidelines.
The capital club, on the other hand, did well to beat Genk and Cercle Brugge in their last two league matches and even though both Majeed Ashimeru and Amadou Diawara are on international duty, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting side. Thomas Delaney continues to miss out with a hamstring problem. You should know that Anderlecht hammered Leuven 5-1 at Lotto Park in the first half of the season.
