Head-to-head statistics Anderlecht - Raal La Louviere
RSC Anderlecht Team Overview
Anderlecht finished sixth in last season's regular championship, then came fourth in the championship group, securing a Europa League spot. In the summer, the team went through three friendly matches without a defeat and immediately got involved in European qualifying. The Brussels side have already beaten Swedish club Hammarby, and in the middle of this week they won away against Greek side PAOK, building an excellent advantage ahead of the second leg. Vitor Bruno's side play varied attacking football and are in superb form. At their home ground, Anderlecht are used to playing as the dominant side, constantly pressing on the opponent's goal.

Raal La Louviere Team Overview
La Louvière can hardly look back on last season with any satisfaction, having finished no higher than 15th in the table. The visitors had a tough time in the relegation playoff group, but they held on to that same 15th place and kept their top-flight status. Their summer preparation was extremely underwhelming: they managed to win just two of seven pre-season matches. Problems in the defensive line and uncertain play at set pieces are still preventing the underdogs from finding any consistency.

⭐ Editor's Pick
A bet on total over 2.5 goals looks like the most logical choice for this match. The main argument is the impressive statistics of the hosts, whose "over" has come in eight consecutive home matches. Anderlecht have found their attacking form through regular practice in the Europa League qualifying rounds. La Louvière's defence made regular costly mistakes in pre-season, so holding back such pressure will be beyond them. We expect a high-scoring match in which fans will almost certainly see at least three goals. A scoreline of 2-1 is possible.
