Antwerp vs Anderlecht Prediction: Antwerp to book their spot in the final

Bosuilstadion will host the Belgian Cup encounter between Antwerp and Anderlecht. The first leg of this game ended in a win for Anderlecht and they will hope to stay solid here. How will this game unfold?

Antwerp

Antwerp are coming off a win over Club Brugge in the league and will hope for a similar outcome. In a game that ended 2-1, Antwerp needed to come from a one-goal deficit to win in the second half, with goals from Mahamadou Doumbia and Tjarron Chery being crucial for them. Heading into this game, Antwerp have not lost their last three matches, defeating Westerlo and drawing St. Truiden. While they are favourites, Antwerp will be confident to turn the tables around after losing on the road in the first half. 

Anderlecht

Anderlecht are coming off a league defeat against Gent in an encounter that ended 1-0. In that encounter, the 6th-minute Atsuki Ito strike was all their opponent needed to secure maximum points. However, Anderlecht have suffered defeat in three of their last four matches, their lone victory coming against KV Mechelen. In other encounters, Anderlecht lost to Hoffenheim and Viktoria Plzen. Heading into this game, Anderlecht have lost their last two consecutive matches on the road, a record they will look to overturn.
