Anderlecht vs Antwerp – Betting Preview
A compelling matchup between Anderlecht and Antwerp is scheduled for the 23rd round of Belgium’s top football league!

Anderlecht Preview
Though the hosts have a strong team, their performance this season has been lacking. After 22 rounds, they are in the centre of the standings with just 27 points.
Aside from that, they are only four points out of the playoffs, so I anticipate that they will play with a lot of motivation in the games to come.
Brian Riemer’s RSC Anderlecht have netted a sum total of 6 times over their last 6 outings. The tally of goals that they have conceded in those same games is 8!
Antwerp Preview
Antwerp go into this match following a 4-1 First Division A win with the eclipse of Standard Liège in their last match.
They are performing particularly well this season as evidenced by the fact that they are presently third in the standings after accumulating 45 points.
The visitors are in excellent form right now, having picked up two victories in their last three league games.
Antwerp have a penchant for winning games, as evidenced by the 21 goals scored in their last six games, which results in an average of 3.5 goals per game. From this total, opposing teams have successfully made 6.
1X2 Betting Odds
In light of these two clubs, we believe that Antwerp and RSC Anderlecht may struggle to score goals in this situation.
It seems to be shaping up to be a draw at this point, but the visitors are, in my opinion, even likely to win this game!
And if we were to look at the odds, unfortunately, there is no clear answer there as well!
Anderlecht, who are the home side in this, are only just the underdogs to win this with odds standing @ 2.77.
I said only just, because its not like the away side are the clear favourites in this! Their odds of winning on road stands @ 2.60.
The possibility of a draw and points shared between the two sides, stands @ 3.60.
Total goals over/under
The odds that the total number of goals scored will be over 2.5, stands @ 2.06.
While the odds that the total number of goals will be under 2.5, stands @ 1.93.
Well, the market expects this game to be a close one between the two sides, with even a stalemate a real possibility. And the market also expects that the match will be of a low scoring nature!
