Antwerp vs Anderlecht Prediction
In 2023, under Van Bommel's guidance, the "Great Olds" achieved a "golden double" with a league title and Belgian Cup victory. After that, they claimed the Super Cup and participated in the Champions League group stage. However, in the Jupiler Pro League, they slipped to third place after the regular season and struggled in the "championship group," finishing sixth.
On the other hand, Anderlecht managed to secure a top-3 spot. As a result, they returned to the Europa League, where they suffered their first loss only in January, once they had already confirmed their progression to the playoffs. Meanwhile, in the league, they are focused on maintaining their position compared to last season. Their rivals, coached by Jonas De Roeck, were recently defeated by the league champions, Brugge.
In the Belgian Cup, Antwerp advanced past Deinze, Kortrijk, and Royal Union, but in the first leg of the semifinal, they suffered a 1-0 defeat away to Anderlecht due to a goal by Degryff. Anderlecht reached this stage after defeating Tubize, Westerlo, and Beerschot.
