4353
On Thursday night, Eupen and Anderlecht go head-to-head in the Belgian Cup semi-final first leg.
Eupen have drifted towards the relegation zone in the Belgian top-flight of late after a poor run of league form. The home side is just four points clear of the danger zone.
They head into this game on a five-game winless run in all competitions. Their last win came in the previous round of the Belgian Cup, as they beat Mechelen 3-1.
The home team has a good recent record in this competition, having won six of their previous seven matches in the Belgian Cup. Eupen have beaten Dender and Zulte Waregem before the win over Mechelen in the last round.
The home team also has a decent recent home record in the Cup, as in their last seven matches they have won four games in 90 minutes one in extra-time and suffered two defeats.
Anderlecht will take a break from attempting to consolidate their position in the European spots in the Belgian top-flight to tackle this fixture.
The visitors head into this clash on the back of a poor run, which has seen them claim just one win in their last four games in all competitions. Vincent Kompany’s team has suffered back-to-back defeats against Cercle Brugge and Union Saint-Gilloise.
Their recent outings have been low-scoring affairs, as their last four competitive games have all produced under 2.5 goals.
When it comes to the Belgian Cup, Anderlecht have won six of their last nine matches in 90 minutes and one on penalties.
They have also won five of their previous seven away games in the Belgian Cup in normal time, won once in extra time and won one on penalties.
Forebet predicts that Anderlecht will record a comfortable first-leg victory to take into the second leg next month.
