Kortrijk vs Anderlecht Prediction and Betting Tips | September 17th 2023

Kortrijk will host Anderlecht at Guldensporen Stadion on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Jupiler Pro League campaign.

The home side have endured a near-abysmal start to their season and currently find themselves rock-bottom in the league standings. They were beaten 3-0 by Leuven in their last game and had a few chances to get on the scoresheet themselves but could not find a way past Maxence Privot in the opposition goal.

Anderlecht, meanwhile, are enjoying a good run of results in the league at the moment after shaking off their opening-day defeat to Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. They played out a 1-1 draw against 10-man Genk last time out and had looked set to be headed towards maximum points before their opponents leveled the scores deep into additional time.

The visitors sit second in the league table with 13 points from six games. They are level on points with Gent at the top of the pile and can leapfrog them with the three points this weekend.

Kortrijk vs Anderlecht Prediction

Kortrijk have lost five of their last six games and have failed to score any goals in three of those outings. They have won just two competitive home games this year and could struggle this weekend.

Anderlecht, meanwhile, are on a five-game unbeaten streak, picking up four consecutive wins in that period. The visitors are in much better form than their opponents ahead of Sunday's clash and should come out on top here.
