Preview: Anderlecht - KV Kortrijk

GAMES Tonight, in the Lotto Park, the number twelve in the ranking receives the number fourteen. Or in other words Anderlecht versus Kortrijk. Needless to say, a home victory is an absolute must.


In its last four league games, Anderlecht barely scored 1 out of 12. The visitors from Kortrijk aren't doing much better with 4 out of 18. Although the guys did win their last away game, 0-1 at Eupen. Kortrijk currently has seven points, three less than Anderlecht.

Anderlecht coach Felice Mazzu still cannot count on the injured players Diawara and Raman. Refaelov may get a rest after Thursday's European match. It remains to be seen whether Mazzu replaces him with an attacking midfielder (Verschaeren) or a striker (Esposito or Stroeykens).

Kortrijk will have to do without the injured Bruno and Kadri.
