OTHER OH Leuven, Anderlecht's opponent this weekend, face a turning point in their season. Will it be play-downs or still play-off II? Felice Mazzu, a former Anderlecht coach, will be coming to the Lotto Park aiming to take points. OHL are on a positive run, while Anderlecht gained some breathing space after their win against Zulte Waregem.


Mazzu, however, expects a different Anderlecht since Jérémy Taravel arrived on the bench. “Since Taravel has been here, Anderlecht play differently,” Mazzu explains. “There are a lot of role switches, very technical profiles who like to have the ball. We need to prepare for that. Anderlecht can be very strong at home, but above all we must keep up our own momentum.” The Leuven coach stresses the importance of details: “If we manage to eliminate those small imperfections and are efficient in front of goal, a lot becomes possible.”

“I met Taravel when he was a player and we took part in some charity initiatives together. Through Damien Marcq, one of my former players and a good friend of Taravel, I know him a bit better. He's an intelligent man, a good guy. I'm happy for him… but I hope he doesn't have a good game on Saturday,” Mazzu concluded with a laugh.
