Anderlecht vs Royal Antwerp – Best Betting Tips, Predictions, & Odds

Draw
Royal Antwerp will severely miss the services of Vincent Janssen who has been a very strong presence for the club in the offensive areas of the pitch. The 28-year-old has been able to get 14 goals and three assists in his 22 league appearances so far this season including a brace in the recent win over Standard Liege. However, he will be suspended for the upcoming match. Anderlecht are also coming on the back of a first victory in four games. This prediction witnessed a goalless draw between these two teams earlier in the campaign.
Total goals under 2.5
The lack of goals is quite prominent in this fixture. There has been just one game with more than 3.5 goals in the last six games between these two clubs. The earlier meeting in November finished with less than 2.5 goals as well. Even though Royal Antwerp have been demolishing opponents with over 2.5 goals in three out of the last four games, the absence of Vincent Janssen will be a major blow to their offensive threat.
Both teams to score – yes
This prediction does not expect a game which does not prevent goals at both ends, as both outfits have enough attacking potential in the final third. Even with the visitors missing some key players, this game could produce enough entertainment.
