Prediction: 2-2
Anderlecht
There will be fireworks when Antwerp and Anderlecht face each other at Bosuilstadion in the Jupiler League round 14. Antwerp aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Cercle Brugge, with the team eyeing their fourth home triumph of the process. Switzerland international Michael Frey, who scored the winner at the weekend, is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts, while both Aurelio Buta and Radja Nainggolan remain in the recovery room. Midfielder Birger Verstraete is banned for the match.
The capital club, on the other hand, came from two goals behind to share the spoils with Leuven in their last league match. Anderlecht aim to keep their title hopes alive, and seeing that they will go for a win in Sunday’s clash as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Panama defender Michael Murillo will have to serve his ban following his sending off in the last league match.
Highlighted Player (Lior Refaelov):
Lior Refaelov is an Israeli footballer playing as an attacking midfielder for the Belgium giants with whom he has been a mainstay since his arrival in 2011. Rafaelov began his career at Maccabi Haifa where he played 161 league appearances and scored 30 goals before moving to Belgium.
The experienced 30-year-old Israel international has made his senior debut for his country in 2007 and has since earned over 30 caps for Israel. Lior Rafaelov is a player of vast international experience despite the fact Club Brugge are his first and so far only club in Europe.
The 30-year-old attacking midfielder is a major force upfront who has scored six times during Brugge’s Europa League campaign in 2014-15, while he also scored the winner in the Belgian Cup final to earn his club a first trophy in eight years. Last season Rafaleov repeated the feat, having scored in the 2016 Belgian Cup Final, but it wasn’t enough for Club Brugge to avoid getting defeated 2-1 to Standard Liege.
Highlighted Team (Anderlecht):
Founded on 27 May, 1908, Anderlecht are considered one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Paars-wit are the dominant force in the Belgian Pro League and in 2014 they won their 33rd domestic trophy. Anderlecht did remarkably well to win the UEFA Super Cup title in 1983, with the team defeating Benfica in the final of the competition.
The Belgian outfit recorded a 1-0 over the Eagles in the first leg, with the two teams playing out a 1-1 draw in the return leg. Anderlecht play their home games at Constant Vanden Stock Stadium, the venue that was opened in 1917. The stadium was renovated in 1983 and current capacity of Anderlecht’s home ground is 28 063.
The Paars-wit have long-standing rivalries with the likes of Standard Liege and Club Brugge, whilst FC Brussels were considered the club’s bitter opponents in the past. The likes of Besnik Hasi, Lucas Biglia, Filip De Wilde and Romelu Lukaku are some of Anderlecht’s notable players.
