Anderlecht face Lierse on Thursday 27th December at 19:00 GMT+0 at the Constant Vanden Stock stadium with Anderlecht looking to extend their league at the top of the Beligum Pro League to 8 points. Lierse are currently struggling in the relegation zone but a win or draw will take them out of the bottom two if Standard Liege can defeat Beerschot who are playing at 17:00 GMT+.
Below is the current Belgium Pro League form table:
Anderlecht’s form reads – W W W W W W
Lierse’s form reads – D D L L L W
The problem for Lierse is that they struggle to score and have even more trouble keeping goals out. Lierse have scored 6 goals in their last 6 games but they have conceded 13. Anderlecht have scored 18 and conceded just 5 making this an impossible task for Lierse on paper.
In recent years Anderlecht have won 16/29, Lierse have won 4 and 9 draws and i’m afraid history may be the only thing that Lierse have going for them as their stats suggest this will be a demolition job by Anderlecht.
Bookmakers prices reflect these statistics.
