Anderlecht vs Antwerp Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Belgian Jupiler League on Sunday, 6 August 2023.
Anderlecht had an unimpressive start to this Jupiler League season. The team conceded a 2-0 defeat against the previous season runner ups Union st. Gilloise.
Going on, they will be having a hard test in the second match-up too as they faces last season’s third position finisher Antwerp. On top of that Antwerp had a winning start to this season.
Anderlecht can rely on the recent tradition of this match-up since they follows a five-match unbeaten streak. Their last two meet-up ended in a draw.
Three of the last five clashes had goals over 2.5 ft. Anderlecht have a five-match unbeaten streak against Antwerp at this venue.
The pre-season friendlies of Anderlecht were decent enough. The team won three of their four friendly outings at home. They had faced stronger outfits too.
Meanwhile, Antwerp’s most recent road trip was recorded last season. However, they ended up the season with two winless outcome on the road.
Going on, Anderlecht’s strong head to head form with their recent recordings inclines us to back a tip in favor of them. We are not going to back them completely considering the lack of away matches in Antwerp’s recording post Jupiler League 2022-23.
The recent recordings of both suggests a high-scoring display here. Especially Anderlecht who have recorded eight high-scoring match-ups in the last 10. knowing that their recent h2h clashes were high-scoring, we expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
Anderlech have allowed a total of 11 goals while scoring 16 in the past six matches. On the other side Antwerp have scored and leaked 7 in the last six matches. In that case, we expect a both teams scoring scenario here.
We cannot pick a winner from these two considering the current display of both. However, Anderlecht have a slight edge here which forces us to consider a bet in favor of them.
Therefore, we like to start with a win or draw for Anderlecht at 1.56 odds. While placing it as the main tip, we like to back the over 2.5 goals option at 1.78 odds.
