Anderlecht vs Zulte-Waregem prediction, odds and how to watch

Danylo Sikan's 43rd-minute left-foot finish was enough for Anderlecht to claim a narrow 1-0 home victory over KV Kortrijk, with the visitors offering too little in attack to seriously threaten an equaliser.

Westerlo had the ball, the shots, and the big chances to end their losing run. They came away with a draw instead. That tells you everything.

Anderlecht were three goals to the good by half-time in Almaty, with a third-minute own goal setting the tone for a structured, disciplined performance that Kairat never found an answer to. The game was effectively over before the home side had time to settle into any kind of shape.

Zulte-Waregem produced a controlled, clinical performance to dismantle SK Beveren 4-0 at home, scoring four goals from just seven shots on target while their opponents dominated possession and created nothing of note.

Anderlecht arrive at Wednesday's Europa League clash on the back of five straight wins without conceding more than two goals in any game. Lyon, priced as clear favourites, will need to prove they deserve that billing.

Anderlecht host Zulte-Waregem on Saturday evening carrying genuine momentum but a defensive question that keeps following them home. This is a fixture with a clear tactical story underneath the surface.

Zulte-Waregem and Sporting Charleroi arrive at the Elindus Arena on Sunday both unbeaten in the 2026 Belgian Pro League season, but the numbers behind those records tell very different stories about how each side is winning.

Mechelen host Anderlecht on Friday evening with both sides carrying concerning recent form, but the structural problems running through this Mechelen side make them a team to watch very carefully rather than back blindly.
