Anderlecht is currently enduring an 11-game winless streak in the Europa League, with five of their last nine matches ending in defeat. This is in stark contrast to Din. Minsk, suggesting that the outcome may lean heavily in one direction.
Despite Anderlecht’s impressive average of 3.5 goals per game in the Europa League this season, only two of their last 15 matches have featured four or more goals.
Considering that Din. Minsk’s last 45 away games in the top flight have all seen under 3.5 goals, it’s unlikely that this trend will change, even against a high-scoring team like Anderlecht.
Both Anderlecht and Din. Minsk have consistently both scored and conceded in recent Europa League matches. Anderlecht has seen this in all of their last 13 games, while Din. Minsk has experienced the same in 13 of their last 15 away fixtures at this level, making it difficult to expect a clean sheet from either side in this matchup.
Prediction
Under 3.5 goals has been a common theme in 16 of Anderlecht’s last 18 home games in the league, including a loss to Din. Minsk.
Similarly, 16 of Din. Minsk’s last 21 away games have also featured three or fewer goals. Therefore, it would be surprising to see a high-scoring game when these two teams meet.
Prediction: Anderlecht 1 : 1 Din. Minsk
