Anderlecht vs Club Brugge
BRUSSELS (Interstat) — Anderlecht hosts Club Brugge on Sunday in a Belgian First Division A matchup that carries significant weight for both sides, with the visitors looking to avenge a recent loss and the home team aiming to build momentum after a mixed stretch.
The game is set for May 3, 2026, at 8 p.m. local time.
Anderlecht enters the contest after a 3-1 home defeat to Union St-Gilloise on April 26. That result snapped a three-match unbeaten run that included wins over Gent (3-1), Mechelen (2-1) and a scoreless draw at Sint-Truiden. Over their last 10 league games, Anderlecht has posted five wins, two draws and three losses, with an aggregate goal difference of 19-14. The squad has been particularly potent at home, where they have scored multiple goals in four of their last five fixtures at Constant Vanden Stock Stadium.
Club Brugge, meanwhile, arrives on the back of a 2-0 victory at Gent on April 26, a result that pushed their league record to seven wins in their last 10 matches. Brugge’s recent form includes a 6-1 demolition of Mechelen on April 22, though they suffered a 2-1 loss at Union St-Gilloise on April 19. The team has scored 25 goals in its last 10 outings while conceding 10, and has shown resilience on the road, with four away wins in its last six.
The all-time series between these fierce rivals has been tightly contested this season. In their most recent meeting on April 6, Club Brugge defeated Anderlecht 4-2 at home. That result was preceded by a 2-2 draw in Brussels on March 8 and a 1-0 Anderlecht victory on home soil Nov. 9. The home side has won two of the three head-to-head matches this campaign, and Anderlecht will be eager to replicate that success.
Interstat’s game simulator projects a 2-1 win for Anderlecht, with the home team holding a 53.00 percent probability of victory according to the company’s ELO rating system.
Both teams are expected to field near-full-strength lineups. For Anderlecht, striker Kasper Dolberg has been in strong form, scoring four goals in the last five matches. Club Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken, the league’s leading scorer, will be a key threat after netting a brace in the 4-2 win over Anderlecht earlier this month.
Sunday’s clash marks the fourth and final regular-season meeting between the sides. With playoff implications looming, every point matters in what promises to be a high-intensity affair under the lights in Brussels.
