Anderlecht vs St.Truiden Prediction: A tense match ahead with goals from both sides

At Lotto Park, Anderlecht will play host to St. Truiden in the round of 25 matches of the Jupiler Pro League. St. Truiden will be the visitor. The weekend before last, the home team Anderlecht earned a victory away from home against Oostende, and the away team St. Truiden won a close match against Kortrijk.

After their victory against Oostende in the First Division A, Anderlecht are looking to add another victory to their resume. During that match, Anderlecht had 58% control of the ball and 11 shots on goal, with only three of them finding the back of the net. Amir Murillo in the 31st minute and Anders Dreyer in the 89th minute were the ones to score for RSC Anderlecht. On the other end of the field, Oostende had 11 shots on goal, but only four of them were successful in hitting the target. Anderlecht, captained by Brian Riemer, have found the back of the net a total of seven times in their previous six matches, which results in an average of 1.17 goals scored per contest. Anderlecht have not suffered a defeat at the hands of Sint-Truidense VV in any of their previous six league meetings leading up to this matchup. Additionally, in the previous four league matches played at home, they were winless. It is easy to understand the frustration of their supporters.

Sint-Truidense enters this match with a 1-0 victory over KV Kortrijk in their most recent encounter played in First Division A. During that game, Sint-Truidense held a 40% possession advantage and had 7 shots on goal, with only 2 of them finding the back of the net. On the other end of the field, Kortrijk had nine shots on goal, with four of them finding their mark. Tom Vandenberghe scored an own goal for KV Kortrijk in the 49th minute. Sint-Truidense has played in five of the last six games, and in each of those games, there has been an unusually low number of goals scored between them and their opponents. During that time period, the total average number of goals scored per game is barely 2, and the average number of goals scored by De Kanaries is equal to 0.83. Taking a look at the stats before the game, it appears that Sint-Truidense have not been victorious over RSC Anderlecht when playing against them on the road in any of the four most recent league meetings. However, in their previous five league matches played away from home, they have yet to suffer a loss.

Even though each squad was victorious in their most recent contest, it does not mean that they have reached their peak level of play just yet. Despite this, the home team appears to be in superior shape, and we anticipate that they will be able to deliver a fantastic performance and prevail despite the pressure that is being applied by St. Truiden. However, the away team does not appear to be playing particularly poorly, and we anticipate that they will be able to capitalize on at least one of their opportunities. As a result, we anticipate placing a wager on over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in the match.
