Prediction: 3-1
Dender
Anderlecht will try to recover from a 2-0 loss to Genk when they welcome Dender at Lotto Park in the last game of the year. The capital club aim to retain third place in the standings and you should know that they are after their fifth home win of the process. All Ashimeru, Hazard, and Vertonghen are sidelined with injuries, while Killian Sardella is a major doubt and the 22-year-old defender will be assessed ahead of Friday’s clash.
Dender, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Antwerp. As Anderlecht are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing something from the match. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team, but both Fofana and Lallemand remain doubtful. In their last meeting in Brussels, back in 2009, Anderlecht defeated Dender 3-0 in the Belgian Cup.
Highlighted Player (Jan Vertonghen):
After spending four years at Ajax, in 2006 Jan Vertonghen signed a loan deal with RKC Waalwijk. The left-footed defender spent one season at Mandemakers Stadion and he returned to Ajax for the 2007/2008 season. The highly rated footballer, who is capable of playing as both centre back and left back, signed a deal with Tottenham Hotspur on 8 July, 2012 and he has been playing for the Premier League outfit ever since.
The Belgian defender scored four goals for the Spurs in the 2012/2013 Premier League season and he made 34 league appearances for the White Hart Lane outfit back then. In the 2015/2016 season Jan Vertonghen and his teammates were producing brilliant displays with Tottenham, but the Spurs eventually finished the campaign in third place in the standings.
Speaking of his international career, Vertonghen made it to both World Cup (2014) and Euro (2016) quarter-finals with the Belgian national team. Jan was born on 24 April, 1987 and his shirt number is 5.
