Prediction: 3-1
Kortrijk
High-flying Anderlecht will look to extend their winning run to seven games when they take on Kortrijk in the Jupiler League round 30. The capital club proved their worth in the local derby against RWDM (3-0), but Jan Vertonghen and Co. need to keep on making progress if they are to overtake St Gilloise in top position. As Brian Riemer has no fresh injury worries ahead of the visit of Kortrijk, home win should definitely be considered.
De Kerels, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the table with only 21 points on their account. Considerign that Kortrijk have suffered four defeats in the previous five league matches, anything but a routine home victory would be a big surprise. Defender Marco Kana should miss the match with injury as well midfielders Djibi Seck and Haruya Fujii, speaking of the visiting side.
