Anderlecht - Gent predictions

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.68, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

The odds are stacked heavily against Gent here, and we can’t see them winning this match. Anderlecht are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 4.68.

The home team were the most likely winners of their previous Pro League engagement even before kick-off, but few saw the crushing 0:2 away victory coming. After a rather mediocre first half, they completely dominated the later stages of the game.

Gent are coming on the back of a draw in both halves of their matchup at Mechelen. They were fighting heavily unfavourable betting odds and a home-field disadvantage, though, so the unexciting draw is a fairly good result for them.

Anderlecht have a reputation for consistently scoring high, especially in the past few matches. Records show more than 5 goals scored in total over their previous 3 outings, which is a fairly strong result.

Gent’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 6 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

This matchup was very one-sided last season, and most bookies are expecting Anderlecht to continue their spree of dominance. They won against Gent more than once, and even managed to record a solid goal difference in each instance.

Sunday's match will see both teams at their strongest, with no players missing due to injury or suspension.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet has strong chances of success here, so we can safely recommend it. With the teams’ records for scoring and conceding in mind, the 1 odds offered at 1xbet are more than fair in terms of value.
