Anderlecht - AS Eupen predictions

With the odds set at 1.33 for a home win, Anderlecht winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic AS Eupen fans are expecting them to triumph at Anderlecht this Sunday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

The last time we saw Anderlecht, we were treated to a rollercoaster ride of excitement. They went into the away game against Club Brugge as underdogs by a considerable margin and were trailing behind the opposition on half-time. However, an incredible performance in the second half pushed them into the lead, resulting in a 1:2 triumph.

AS Eupen were the 1.65 underdogs in their previous Pro League match, which made it borderline impossible to win, even at home. Their supporters had some hope of a draw after the inconclusive first half, but those hopes were quickly dashed, with the bout ending with 0:2 on the scoreboard.

A quick look at the recent trends reveals a solid record for Anderlecht, who have managed to score 5 times in their previous 3 matches. This means that markets like BTTS or Over 5 Goals are worth your attention.

With 8 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, AS Eupen’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

One of the main reasons the bookies are pricing a home win at 1.33 is the previous clash between these two teams. Earlier in the season, Anderlecht won as visitors. To be fair, though, it was a relatively narrow victory.

Going for a -1.5 Handicap on the favourite’s score is the best way to get some value out of this match. You’ll eliminate the possibility of a draw, for one. More importantly, this way you might actually get a decent payout for backing the stronger team.
