Our prediction for this Belgium Pro League match:
Anderlecht will be aiming to make amends for a heart-breaking loss to Standard Liege when they face Eupen on Sunday. The capital club are eager to put an end to their three-game losing run in the Jupiler League, and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against the Pandas. As before, a man to watch in the home team will be talented attacker Fabio Silva, who has netted six goals so far this term, while all Sardella, Delcroix, Raman, and Kana are likely to miss the game with injuries.
Eupen, on the other hand, have already suffered five defeats on the road this season, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Anderlecht’s party at Lotto Park. As for the visiting side, midfielders Amadou Keita and Sibiry Keita are rated doubtful for the match.
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.
