Anderlecht take on the visitors Dender in the round 20 match of Jupiler Pro League. The match will be played on Friday, December 27th at Lotto Park (Anderlecht).
Anderlecht is trying to gain momentum. The "purple and white" are perceived by many as the main Belgian club. But it has remained in the second roles for an unacceptably long time, as for its history. And last season, with 3rd place, against the background of the previous ones, was already progress, although in it, after leading the regular championship in the additional "pool", the grandee fell behind both Royal Union and Brugge, who eventually won the new title. But at least the Belgians went to the Europa League, and, having passed Minsk Dynamo in the qualification, won four times in the main round with a couple of draws. On the domestic arena, the results are much worse, there were enough unsuccessful periods. But at the same time, Riemer's charges met the winter in good shape, mostly winning. However, the leader, Genk, tripped up their pursuer in the last round, beating them 2-0.

"Dender" have been missing in the Jupiler League almost since the beginning of the century, exactly one and a half decades. They managed to return only at the end of last season, and then only from 2nd place in the Challenge League. Such newcomers are traditionally perceived skeptically. But this time they have shown themselves to be very combative, confidently holding on in the middle of the table and consistently gaining more than a point per round. And in December they even managed to beat "Westerlo" and "Kortrijk" in succession, clearly showing that the decline that had lasted since the end of autumn was already behind them. On the other hand, they lost to "Antwerp" in the last round 1-3.
In September, the sides managed to hold their first official match since 2009. And the newcomer to the Jupiler League in it, having missed first and lost before the break, ended up drawing 1-1. The host team is clearly much stronger. So you can bet on the victory of the "purple-whites" with a handicap of "-1 goal".
Prediction for the match: Anderlecht to win with -1.0 handicap.
