Charleroi is eager for a better outcome in the upcoming match after suffering a 1-0 defeat in their last First Division A game against KV Kortrijk. In that match, Charleroi had 56% possession and attempted 7 shots on goal, with only 1 finding the target. KV Kortrijk, on the other hand, had 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, and Isaak Davies (45') scored the decisive goal.

Additionally, Charleroi has not secured a victory against RSC Anderlecht in their last 2 league encounters leading up to this contest.

Anderlecht enters this upcoming clash on the back of a 1-0 victory in the First Division A, defeating Gent in their previous match. In that game, RSC Anderlecht held 40% possession and attempted 11 shots on goal, with 3 on target. Anders Dreyer (45') scored the lone goal for Anderlecht, while Gent had 13 shots on goal, with 4 on target.

Moreover, Anderlecht has remained undefeated in their previous 6 away league matches but has not secured a win in their last 3 away matches in the league.

Charleroi has faced difficulties recently, losing three of their last four games and winning only two of their last 10 competitive outings. Despite these challenges, they have secured victories in two of their last three home games, providing hope for a positive result this weekend.

Anderlecht, on the other hand, ended a four-game winless streak in their latest result and aims to build on that performance in the upcoming match. While they have been winless in their last four away games, the expectation is that they possess enough strength to secure a victory in this encounter. The prediction suggests that both teams are likely to score in what is anticipated to be a closely contested match.
