Charleroi vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting tips
Charleroi and Anderlecht open play-off two on Playday 1. Both teams started with a defeat and want to straighten it out as quickly as possible. Who loses and can make a cross about the ambitions?
Charleroi:
Charleroi has not won since 19 January and has already lost his third place to AA Gent. So a wonderful season threatens to end in minor. Because of the bad series with lots of equal games, it now comes down to grab the three points as quickly as possible. So there is a very important competition on the program this weekend. Provided they can beat Anderlecht, they come back to at least three places, which was the goal at the start of the playoffs
The Walloon derby stayed for more than eighty minutes in good intentions, one delightful Edmilson bang in the final phase ensured a deserved victory for the Rouches. Earned, but after a disappointing match. The Rouches did not get past the stiff Zebras despite much goodwill. But a pearl of Edmilson then brought salvation.
Coach Felice Mazzu reacted disillusioned. ‘I’m frustrated. Especially because we get a goal that falls after an individual phase ‘, according to the Charleroi-trainer. ‘But also very proud of the performance of my players. Especially because we have had a difficult period. Hopefully we show the same mentality and grinta against Anderlecht, ‘says Mazzu.
Anderlecht:
Anderlecht are in the fool street. They then closed the regular season in second place after nine out of nine in the final. But the puntgewin concealed the shortcomings of this season. This became painfully clear in the first match of Play-off 1. It did not play with the knife between the teeth. Despite all team building activities in preparation, there was no team on the field. If it wants to achieve the predefined second place, it has to start winning on the Charleroi field next weekend.
Anderlecht did not return home last weekend against a very strong AA Gent, which is increasing to second place because of the win. The Buffalos had practically won a six-minute option in the first twenty-five minutes. The experimental defense of Anderlecht with Ivan Obradovic, Uros Spajic, Josué Sa and Alexis Saelemaekers was shivering on his legs. The peace was hardly over or Ghent was already ahead. In the final phase Spajic defeated BirgerVerstraete and Yuya Kubo put his penalty down in two times. Ghent is the big winner of the battle.
Saelemaekers, the 18-year-old right-wing from Anderlecht who was on the run for the first time, was a bright spot. Another boost is the return of Henry Onyekuru. After his rehabilitation with mother club Everton Onyekuru is back at Anderlecht. The man who sustained a crack in his cruciate ligaments in December is confident that he will be able to play again. “I’m back to finish the season,” he said. ‘I’ll play again in two weeks and hopefully I’ll get my statistics and win the title. I do not think about the World Cup yet. I focus on Anderlecht and then we see. ‘
