Anderlecht - Zulte Waregem

Anderlecht look to rebound from their midweek European disappointment as they host Zulte Waregem on 19 September 2026 for this Belgian Pro League matchday 7 encounter. The hosts face a defensive reshuffle at Lotto Park with Giulian Biancone sidelined, placing pressure on the expected backline of Leo Petrot, Andrew Omobamidele, and Ali Maamar to maintain composure. With Danylo Sikan and Tawfik Bentayeb leading the forward line, the home side aims to replicate the efficiency shown in their narrow league victory over KV Mechelen earlier this month.

Zulte Waregem arrive following a tight loss to Sporting Charleroi, though their recent away form includes a convincing win against Kortrijk. The visitors will look to exploit any lingering fatigue in the Anderlecht ranks, having enjoyed a competitive edge in recent meetings between the clubs. History suggests a high-scoring affair, as seen in the 4-2 result back in February 2026.
