Match Result Analysis
Both Teams Not To Score In 2nd Half: 94.80
The high probability for this bet stems from Westerlo’s strong second-half performances in recent games, where they have tightened their defense effectively. Additionally, Anderlecht’s tendency to conserve energy after securing an early lead makes this outcome likely.
Under 2.5 Goals: 85.60
This market is supported by the defensive capabilities of both teams and their recent scoring patterns. With both teams averaging fewer than three goals per match recently, betting on under 2.5 goals seems prudent.
Both Teams Not To Score In 1st Half: 85.10
Anderlecht’s strategy often involves quick starts; however, their opponents’ ability to neutralize early threats has been improving lately. Coupled with Westerlo’s disciplined start in recent fixtures, this scenario is plausible.
Over 1.5 Goals: 65.50
The likelihood here is bolstered by the offensive capabilities of both teams when they are at full strength and not overly cautious about conceding space or counterattacks.
Goals Market Assessment
Last Goal Between Minutes 73-90: 75.20
Anderlecht often pushes forward aggressively in the closing stages of matches to secure a winning margin or equalizer, increasing the chances of a late goal.
Goal In Last 15 Minutes: 69.20
This bet is attractive given both teams’ tendencies to score late in games due to strategic substitutions and tactical shifts aimed at breaking stalemates.
First Goal Between Minute 0-29: 52%
Anderlecht’s historical data shows a pattern of scoring within the first half-hour due to their proactive attacking approach and high pressing tactics from the outset.
Cards Market Evaluation
Under 5.5 Cards: 78.30
The relatively low average number of cards (Yellow Cards: 2.33) indicates disciplined play from both sides historically, making under bets more appealing here.
Under 4.5 Cards: 62%
This further narrows down expectations based on consistent referee leniency in these fixtures and improved player conduct over recent seasons.
