Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Match outcome: Draw — 3.54
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Total goals: Under 2.5 — 1.80
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Both teams to score: YES — 1.83
There’s a huge chance this game could end in a draw because Anderlecht haven’t done well at home this season. They are winless in their last four home matches.
It’s also possible this game could finish with less than three goals because four of Anderlecht’s last five matches ended with under 2.5 goals, including the reverse fixture against Ludogorets that ended 1-0 in Bulgaria.
There’s a chance both teams could score because Anderlecht have scored at least one goal in three of their last five matches and Ludogorets have scored at least a goal in each of their last five games.
The Belgian side have won three of their last five matches across all competitions, they lost two games and one of them was last week’s 1-0 defeat to Ludogorets in the reverse fixture in Bulgaria.
Anderlecht will hope to turn the deficit around in the return leg in Belgium but their overall performance needs to improve but they will face Kortrijk first on Sunday in the league and will hope to avoid any injury to their key players. Anderlecht are occupying the 10th position with 34 points after 25 games.
The Bulgarian side have won three and drawn two of their last five league matches. They beat Anderlecht 1-0 at home in the reverse fixture on Thursday.
Ludogorets will look to defend their tight lead in Belgium when they face Anderlecht in the return leg but before their Europa Conference League clash, they will host Slavia Sofia in a league game on Sunday. Ludogorets are in the 2nd position in the Bulgarian’s top division with 46 points after 19 games.
We say Anderlecht 1-1 Ludogorets. The Belgian side will want to turn their situation around but their form this season speaks otherwise while Ludogorets, who won the first leg, will plan to defend their tight lead.
Nothing could separate both teams at full time but there’s a chance both teams could get on the scoreboard.
Anderlecht are the favourites, and it looks safe to back them to avoid a defeat at home.
