Pro League
Encounters between Anderlecht and Gent have often been low-scoring over the past five seasons. Results such as 1-0, 1-1, or 0-0 have occurred in nine head-to-head fixtures since 2020, with only a few exceptions. Notably, Anderlecht thrashed Gent 5-0 last season and had beaten them even more convincingly the year before, winning 6-0. Gent have managed just one victory in the last four meetings, and they appear to struggle against the multiple-time Pro League champions.
Anderlecht team overview
It has been a rough few weeks for Anderlecht. Besnik Hasi’s side are winless in their last five matches across all competitions. They failed to get past AEK Athens in the UEFA Conference League playoff round and have not won any of their last three Pro League games. A 2-0 defeat to current leaders Union Saint-Gilloise before the international break was followed by draws against Genk (1-1) and Royal Antwerp (0-0). To make matters worse, Anderlecht have had three players sent off across those fixtures.
Saliba and N. Angulo are both suspended after recent red cards and will not be available on Tuesday.

Gent team overview
Gent have also been inconsistent and currently share the same record as Anderlecht (3W, 2D, 2L). After a slow start to the 2025/26 campaign, with just one win in their opening four matches, Gent have picked up momentum - collecting seven points from a possible nine in recent weeks. They have shown flashes of quality but continue to display defensive vulnerabilities, with only two clean sheets in their first seven league outings. On the road, their form has been solid: one win, one draw, and one defeat.
Gent will also be missing a player through suspension: Samuel Kotto is ruled out after being sent off against Royal Antwerp.

Prediction
Home advantage will be crucial for Anderlecht, who generally start strongly at Lotto Park, particularly in high-profile fixtures. Gent, on the other hand, will look to absorb pressure early, contain Anderlecht’s possession play, and strike on the counter or from set pieces. Considering the head-to-head trends - with under 2.5 goals in eight of the last ten meetings - this match is unlikely to be a high-scoring affair.
We expect another low-scoring contest, with under 2.5 goals the most likely outcome. This would mark Anderlecht’s fifth consecutive league match with fewer than three goals scored.
Three reasons we expect Under 2.5 Goals
- Under 2.5 goals have been scored in Anderlecht’s last four league matches and in seven across all competitions.
- Under 2.5 goals were recorded in eight of the last ten meetings between Anderlecht and Gent.
- Gent have managed to score only four goals in their three away league matches this season.
