Anderlecht vs Westerlo Prediction: Both teams will not have problems scoring

In the round of 32 matches of the Belgian Jupiler Pro League, Westerlo will play Anderlecht away from home. Last weekend, the squad was on the road against Eupen, while Westerlo was defeated by Charleroi in their own stadium.

After their most recent result, a win against Eupen by a score of 0-1 in the First Division A, Anderlecht are looking to add another victory to their resume. Throughout that match, Anderlecht had 59% of the possession and had 13 shots on goal, with 4 of them finding the target. Benito Raman was the sole player who scored for RSC Anderlecht in the 50th minute. On the other hand, Eupen had nine shots on goal, but only one of them was successful in hitting the target. In six of the last six matches that Anderlecht have played, the total number of goals scored was lower than three per game on average. In terms of the goal weighting over that time period, Anderlecht managed to score a total of seven goals, while their rival teams only managed two combined. Anderlecht come into this encounter with a perfect record of four wins in a row in recent matches.

After suffering a defeat in their most recent match in First Division A competition against Charleroi, both Westerlo and their supporters will be hoping for a different outcome this time around. Westerlo had 52% possession of the ball during that game and 16 shots on goal, with 7 of them finding the back of the net. Mathias Fixelles in the 8th minute and Tuur Dierckx in the 89th minute were the ones that scored for Westerlo. Charleroi, the team they were playing against, had 12 shots on goal, with 5 of them hitting the target. Charleroi's goals were scored by Vakoun Issouf Bayo in the 35th minute, Daan Heymans in the 39th minute, and Youssouf Badji in the 92nd minute. It is indicative of Westerlo's participation in high-scoring encounters that we have witnessed a total of 21 goals scored in the last six matches that they have played, which results in an average of 3.5 goals scored in each contest. The opposing teams have been successful in achieving nine of these goals.

Anderlecht and Westerlo have a relatively decent head-to-head history, as they have played each other a total of 26 times in the previous seasons, with Anderlecht claiming victory in 19 of those games and Westerlo claiming victory in 5 of those contests. There were two games that ended in ties. In the head-to-head matchups between the two teams, Anderlecht scored 59 goals, while Westerlo only managed to score 24 goals.

Both clubs have scored at least once in each of their last four matches, indicating that their great offensive play will undoubtedly pay off in this contest. Even if we think it will be difficult for the home team to win five games in a row, we are going to continue to follow the predictions of the oddsmakers.
