Anderlecht greet Gent for another appealing Pro League game here at Lotto Park.
- Anderlecht have won all their matches at home so far.
- Gent have the most dropped points from leading position (7) in Pro League
It's no vacation for neither Anderlecht nor Gent as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Anderlecht form and stats
Perfect Pro League season at home so far for Anderlecht 2 wins from 2 appearances.
Anderlecht are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Union Saint-Gilloise. Midfield player Murillo got a match rating of 7.45 in that game, the max score being 10. Murillo scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Ahead of that match, a home defeat in the Europa Conference League against Young Boys (after extra-time, 3-1 on penalties).
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Anderlecht, as the Pro League home game vs OH Leuven is only three days away.
Early season league goal statistics from Anderlecht's 2 home games: 5 goals, 1 conceded.
Gent form and stats
Four points from two away games for Gent, meaning one draw and one victory in the Pro League so far.
Gent failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Antwerp (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 1-2. Until that defeat this side had taken at least a draw from eight league matches in a row. Hong got a match rating of 7.85 in that game, top player of the team. Hong hit two key passes.
A defeat, in the Europa League away at Omonia Nicosia, before that.
Goals from both teams? This side's most recent fixtures suggest that, having finished 5 league games in a row with one or more goals from each team.
The schedule is very tough for Gent now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Pro League game at Sporting Charleroi is waiting in only three days.
Gent have the goal stats of 5-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
