The upcoming Europa League clash between Anderlecht and Porto on November 28th presents a compelling matchup, as the two teams find themselves at contrasting ends of the form spectrum. Anderlecht, currently unbeaten in their group and riding a wave of momentum from recent league victories, holds a six-point advantage over Porto. Conversely, Porto is grappling with internal strife and has suffered three consecutive defeats, including losses to notable rivals like Lazio and Benfica . This context sets the stage for an intriguing encounter that could impact both teams' aspirations for progression in the tournament.
The home time has been in fine form in their last five games winning four of them and one ended as a draw. They have scored 20 goals in this process and only conceded once which shows how good they are playing at the moment. On the other hand, the visitors have lost three games on a trout and looking down and out. They have conceded 8 goals and scored 4 goals in the last 3 games.
Anderlecht possible starting lineup: Coosemans; Sardella, Simic, Jorgensen, N'Diaye; Verschaeren, Rits; Dreyer, Stroeykens, Edozie; Dolberg
Porto possible starting lineup: Costa; Fernandes, Perez, Djalo, Moura; Varela, Eustaquio; Vieira, Nico, Galeno; Samu
By the looks of things, we are quite not sure about picking a winner here. Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score looks like a good option to back here as the attacking side of both have been netting goals in an impressive manner. Especially FC Porto’s whose attacking side includes the Spanish forward Samu who have scored 3 goals this Europa League season which includes a brace against Man United.
Historically, Anderlecht has demonstrated dominance over Porto in their previous meetings at home, winning all four encounters. Despite some injury concerns within their squad, key player Kasper Dolberg's impressive scoring record enhances their offensive threat . Predictions favor Anderlecht to secure a narrow victory of 2-1 based on current form and home advantage. However, betting odds suggest an unexpected probability favoring Porto (3), adding another layer of unpredictability to this highly anticipated match.
