Westerlo vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting Tips

Westerlo vs Anderlecht Match Preview

Westerlo welcome an in-form Anderlecht side that has tightened up defensively and built strong momentum in recent weeks. The hosts, meanwhile, continue to struggle for cutting edge, especially at home where goals have dried up. Anderlecht’s ability to control low-scoring matches has become a clear trend, and it places immediate pressure on a Westerlo side that rarely finishes chances.

Westerlo’s Home Struggles Highlight Their Recent Dip

Westerlo’s league form remains fragile, with no win in their last five matches and two defeats in that stretch. The 0-0 against Gent and 1-1 with Dender show resilience, but they lack the attacking punch needed to close matches.

Their home record underlines the issue, as they have failed to score in two of the last three games at this venue, including the 0-1 loss to Genk. Even their only point in that spell came with the 1-1 draw against Dender, signalling a side low on threat. Westerlo’s inconsistency in the final third continues to hold them back.

Anderlecht’s Defensive Steel Drives Their Push

Anderlecht arrive with four wins from their last five league fixtures, including tight 1-0 results against Union St. Gilloise and Club Brugge. Their away form also shows improvement, highlighted by the recent 0-1 win at La Louviere.

Even when not scoring freely, they remain composed and difficult to break down, conceding only once across their last two away matches. The Purple & White seem comfortable controlling cagey contests.

Westerlo vs Anderlecht Prediction

Anderlecht to win at 2.10 odds is the best bet. Their strong run of narrow, professional victories pairs well with Westerlo’s attacking issues, especially given the hosts have failed to score in two of their last three home outings. Recent head-to-head results also lean heavily towards the visitors, who dominated this fixture in July 2025 and December 2024.

Given both teams’ current scoring patterns, both teams to score – no at 2.50 odds fits naturally. Westerlo’s lack of cutting edge at home contrasts sharply with Anderlecht’s compact, low-risk approach, which often limits matches to one-sided scorelines.
