In their five recent games Anderlecht recorded one triumph with single draw and three defeats. "The Purple & White" have lost 0:3 to Bayern Munich on the road in the mid- week within the UEFA Champions League. In regards to the Belgian Jupiler League, Anderlecht occupy the unusually low 10th place with eight points gained and 6-7 goal difference. Rene Weiler's side couldn't win even once in four away encounters of this season, having earned two draws and two defeats.
Anderlecht have won their three recent clashes against Kortrijk with 11-2 aggregated score. I believe that the reigning champion will prove again its status by getting another confident victory. "The Purple & White" must beat the mid-table team even at away ground as the rivals’ level is incomparable. Despite the poor competitive form, the visitors have to take maximum points against such humble opponent.
Prediction for the match: Anderlecht to win.
