Our prediction for this Europa League match:
Anderlecht and Ferencvaros take on each other at Lotto Park in what is expected to be an interesting Europa League encounter. Anderlecht aim to put an end to their four-game winless run and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field in their Europa League opener. The likes of Anders Dreyer, Ludwig Augustinsson, Jan Vertonghen, and Thorgan Hazard should miss out with injuries for the home team.
The White-Greens, on the other hand, booked their place in the league phase by beating Borac Banja Luka in the playoffs on penalties. As Ferencvaros and Anderlecht seem to be evenly matched at the moment, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. In their last meeting in a competitive match Ferencvaros and Anderlecht shared the spoils and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
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.
