👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.

👉 Our prediction is: RSC Anderlecht to win the 1st half

RSC Anderlecht is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts KV Mechelen a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking RSC Anderlecht to win the first half.
