Anderlecht will be looking to defend their slim lead when they host PAOK in the second leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie. The Belgian side produced an excellent defensive display in Greece, securing a 1-0 victory despite being under pressure. Anderlecht have been inconsistent recently, winning only three of their last 10 matches, but they have scored in every game during that run. Their home matches have also been high-scoring, averaging 4.00 goals per game, although they have conceded two goals per match.
PAOK will feel frustrated after dominating the first leg without finding the breakthrough. The Greek side registered 16 attempts, 68% possession and even missed a penalty, suggesting they created enough opportunities to get a result. PAOK have won three of their last 10 matches and average 1.50 goals away from home. Summer signing Aritz Elustondo is widely expected to return to the starting XI as they chase the deficit.
As their first-leg dominance suggests they can overturn the deficit, we are tempted to place our bets on Away Win. Additionally, Both Teams to Score and Over 2.5 goals bets are worth considering as Anderlecht’s home games average four goals, while PAOK average 3.50 away.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 13 August 2026 at 19:30.
