Our prediction for this Belgium Pro League match:
Anderlecht
Match Time & Date:
20 September 2025
19:45
Prediction: 1-0
Antwerp
Lotto Park will be the centre of attention when Anderlecht and Antwerp lock horns in the Jupiler League derby. Anderlecht aim to put an end to their four-game winless run in all competitions and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Antwerp. Tristan Degreef is banned for the match following his sending-off in a 1-1 draw with Genk, with Moussa N’Diaye likely to step up. Luis Vazquez is a major doubt and will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Stef Wils’ troops, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Westerlo and Gent. Given Anderlecht’s need for points, we predict that the visitors will return home empty-handed from the trip to Brussels. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of Saturday’s showdown, but Uzbekistan Mukhammadali Urinboev could sneak into the starting XI this time out.
Highlighted Player (Thorgan Hazard):
While his brother Eden Hazard stars for Chelsea, Thorgan Hazard plays for Borussia Monchengladbach in Bundesliga. Thorgan was born in La Louviere, Belgium on 29 march, 1993 and he played for the likes of Royal Stade Brainois, Tubize and Lens during his youth career.
Hazard made 14 appearances for Lens before joining Chelsea in 2012. He did not make his Chelsea debut as he was immediately sent on loan to Zulte Waregem, where he scored 17 goals in 73 league appearances for the club. On 5 July, 2014 he signed a loan deal with Borussia Monchengladbach and in February, 2015 he signed a permanent contract with the Bundesliga outfit. The Belgian midfielder made his first start for the club on 24 September, 2014 against Hamburg.
Speaking of his international career, Thorgan Hazard made his Belgium debut on 29 May, 2013 in a 4-2 win over USA. He has 15 caps for Belgium U21 and he scored nine goals in 15 appearances for the team. His full name is Thorgan Ganael Francis Hazard.
Highlighted Team (Antwerp):
Founded back in 1880, Antwerp is one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Great Old welcome their rivals at Bosuilstadion, the venue with the capacity of 16,144 people. Antwerp are well known for their red home kits, with the team wearing white shirts and white jerseys when playing on the travels.
Over the years Antwerp have been trying to close the gap between Belgian giants Anderlecht and Club Brugge, but they have yet to win the title in the recent history. The Great Old clinched their first domestic trophy back in 1929, with the team repeating the success two years later. The third and the fourth titles came in 1944 and 1957 respectively.
Beerschot A.C. are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, but they have a rivalry with Club Brugge as well. The club chiefs had a long-term partnership with famous English club Manchester United in the past, with Antwerp taking young footballers on loan to Old Trafford.
