OMG! The biggest game and by far the most interesting game in the Jupiler League this season. Anderlecht and Standard, 2 big title candidates, are still in running for the championship and will play against each other. The one who wins, will get bigger chance to grab the title. It has always been a war between this 2 teams. They always were enemy's and the players are speaking about this clash for some weeks.
Anderlecht won his match easily against Westerlo with 5-0! First half was VERY boring, Westerlo defended well, and anderlecht ???tried??? but they got only few chances to score. In the second half, Anderlecht finnaly started to play better. After 10 minutes Pujol scored his 2nd of the season. Very easy goal, and if Westerlo conceede a goal @ Anderlecht you know it can become a big score. Westerlo started to play bad, they ???tried??? to attack, and gave more space to Anderlecht. 3 goals from Pujol (he never scored a ???hattrick??? in his career) a penalty goal of Zetterberg and a goal of Mpenza (he didn't score for month..) and we got a 5-0 FT.
Standard won his game like expekted with only 1-0. But it's not the correct score IMO. It should be easily 10-0 or even more. Brussels got only 1 BIG chance in the first half, and in the end, Brussels should get a penalty but thanks god for Standard fans referree didn't see the fault of standard gk Runje. But Standard got many chances, they als should get a penalty, but Brussels GK Nijs made some obvious miracles. Especially in the second half the game became very boring, and Standard was a bit tired, and they were happy with the 3 points, but not with this crap 1-0 final score.
This game won't decide who will win the title, but it will give only more hope and confidence to one team. Standard is currently first, and they will be happy with a draw. Anderlecht MUST win, if they win all 3 games, they will become champions, but next week they'll go to Gent, where they can lose points. It won't be a spectacular game as both teams can't afford to conceede a goal, the importance of this game is just too high. Onyewu and Conceicao won't play due to suspencion and that's a big blow for Standard creativity and defence. Whole Anderlecht hopes that Frutos can play, he'll start on the bench but I doubt he will have his best niveau after 2 weeks injury + he is not 100% fit. Bettingswise, Under 2.5 should be the most probably outcome, and if you bet on 1x2 outcome I suggest you to take DRAW just because both teams won't attack blindly just because it's too dangerous. Better one point instead of 0 h?�. Last year Anderlecht won with 3-2, but the year before they lost 1-4 against Standard. Probably it will be a draw, as it will suite Standard. One thing is sure: it will be a WAR.
