Oostende vs Anderlecht Predictions

• Oostende have lost 15 of their 23 league contests this season
• Oostende have failed to win any of their last seven games in the Belgian Pro League
• Anderlecht have kept back-to-back clean sheets in the Belgian Pro League

Anderlecht in need of boost

Nestled in the mid-table positions, Anderlecht are not having a great time of it in the Belgian Pro League this season but a visit to Oostende should give them a decent chance of recording three points on Friday.

Anderlecht performed well last season, finishing third under Vincent Kompany, but they have been less successful under the stewardship of Felice Mazzu with only eight wins managed from 23 league fixtures this season.

Struggling Oostende unlikely to cause problems

But a disciplined 1-0 win over strugglers Seraing followed by a respectable 0-0 draw with Antwerp should have raised confidence levels in the Anderlecht camp and they are worth backing for a win this time around.

Oostende have been hopeless in the Belgium top flight with six defeats in their last seven games and should be opposed but Anderlecht will be without suspended forward Benito Raman and a low-scoring victory could be on the cards. We predict 2-0 to Anderlecht.
