FCV Dender EH

Current form
Before the start of the season, Dender was one of the candidates for relegation, but so far it looks more than worthy and is not in the danger zone.

In the last round, Dender lost 1:3 at home to Antwerp without a chance, thus breaking a series of two victories in a row and suffering the seventh defeat of the season.

2.89Tip and bets
Anderlecht suffered a defeat in the last round from a direct competitor and not only fell behind them in the table, but also allowed their neighbors below to come dangerously close. It is obvious that today the "purple-whites" will be maximally motivated and charged for victory - in such a situation, Dendera hardly has a real chance even for a draw, the difference in class is too great.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Anderlecht . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.15
Bet on total
Anderlecht will certainly try to justify their status as favourites today and get the precious three points – the hosts will certainly put serious pressure on the opponent’s goal in the first half. Dendera is not known for its reliability in defence, but at the same time it plays adventurously and has a solid, as for a mid-table team, implementation – an exchange of goals will certainly take place.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.85
Bet on corners
Anderlecht are the favourites and will clearly spend most of the match attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Anderlecht. This bet is offered for 1.95
