Betting on Anderlecht
Anderlecht has had a tough start to the year, winning just three of their nine official matches in the first few months of 2023. Along the way, they have suffered three defeats and dropped three draws. One of those defeats came in the first leg of their current match, which they followed up with a 2-2 draw against Kortrijk in the league last weekend.
Currently placed in ninth position in the Belgian league, Anderlecht’s form has been patchy. They have managed to win just two of their last three home games in all competitions.During the group stage, they won only one of the three matches they played at home. Therefore, playing on their home turf may not give them much hope of turning the series around.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Bart Verbruggen; Michael Murillo, Zeno Debast, Jan Vertonghen, Killian Sardella; Yari Verschaeren, Majeed Ashimeru, Lior Refaelov; Anders Dreyer, Benito Raman, Francis Amuzu.
Betting on Ludogorets
In contrast to Anderlecht’s struggles, Ludogorets took full advantage of their winter break to recharge their batteries and hit the ground running in the new year. The team won their first three gamesand managed to stay just one point behind the leaders in the standings after their recent home victory against Slavia Sofia.
Thanks to a goal from Brazilian striker Igor Thiago, Ludogorets secured a 1-0 win in the first leg of their current match against Anderlecht. This victory puts them in an enviable position going into the next game. Despite their success, Ludogorets is aware that they need to improve their away form to avoid any further disappointments. During the Europa League group stage, the team lost two of their three away games.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Sergio Padt; Anton Nedyalkov, Olivier Verdon, Franco Russo, Alask Fonn Witry; Pedro Naressi, Show; Bernard Tekpetey, Nonato, Kiril Despodov; Igor Thiago Nascimento Rodrigues.
JefeBet Prediction
Despite those two away defeats in the Europa League, Ludogorets showed to be a solid team against clearly superior teams such as Roma and Betis. In this way, they won’t be an easy opponent for Anderlecht, who are not in their best campaign and have already struggled to be effective in front of goal in this tournament.
Anderlecht scored only 6 goals in the 6 matches of the group stage, and considering what happened in the first leg, we expect another even match with few goals.
Prediction: Under (AND 1-1 LUD).
