To beat Bruges, it will be necessary to settle the team both offensively and defensively. At the level of the attack first. During the three confrontations, Anderlecht did not weigh much in front of the Bruges defense. Only one goal scored in the first game on October 27. And only seven shots framed in three games (on 23 shots in total).
Worse even, Anderlecht weighed little at the level of the Expedted Goals. During two of the three confrontations, the Mauves were below 1 (0.79 in match 1 and 0.16 in match 3).
In terms of scorers, Kasper Dolberg is also the tree that hides the purple forest. With 18 achievements, the Danish is alone on his island. Because behind him, you have to go down well in the scorer ranking to find traces of other Anderlechtois. Luis Vazquez is 4 goals. Simic, StroeKens, Dreyer, Verschaeren et Huerta planted three roses.
On the Brugeois side, it’s a completely different matter. The offensive danger comes from everywhere. The club has many offensive profiles capable of shaking the nets. Tzolis (12), Jutgla (9), Vanaken (9), Nilsson (9), Vermant (8) et Talbi (5) do better than all Mauves except Dolberg.
Faced with Anderlecht, 7 goals have managed to mark this season (49 shots, 23 on top) and with five different scorers (Vermant X2, Talbi, Jutgla X2, Nilsson, Tzolis).
