Almaty Central Stadium will host a highly-anticipated Europa League playoffs first-leg clash between Kairat and Anderlecht, with both sides looking to take an advantage into the return fixture. Kairat enjoyed a strong run domestically but struggled offensively in their Champions League double-header with Levski, ultimately dropping into the Europa League playoffs. The Kazakh champions have been impressive at home, winning five of their last six there and averaging 2.17 goals per game. There are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts, while talented forward Ismail Bekbolat is pushing for a starting berth.
Anderlecht, meanwhile, proved their worth by eliminating PAOK 4-2 on aggregate in the previous Europa League round. The Belgians have won four of their last five matches overall, although their away record remains a concern, with only a 20% win rate in their last 10 on the road. Anderlecht have also conceded an average of 2.0 goals per away game during that period. Camara, Hey, and Sardella are all sidelined through injury.
Anderlecht’s recent away games average 2.8 total goals, while Kairat’s overall figure stands at 2.5. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Over 2.5 goals, alongside BTTS and Over 3.5 goals.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 20 August 2026 at 16:00.
