Anderlecht vs Kortrijk Prediction
Anderlecht are the most in-form side in the league and their consistency has seen them close the gap at the summit to Royal Union. Brian Rimer's side have benefitted from their lack of European football and will be looking to win a seventh consecutive game to keep the pressure on the table-toppers.
Kortrijk, for their part, have been the worst side in the division and are running out of time if they are to preserve their status in the top flight.
Anderlecht are overwhelming favorites and, barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing the hosts to claim a comfortable win and clean sheet.
