Albert Celades, the midfielder of Real Madrid, the next Champions League opponent, made clear that Real is happy with one point in Brussels.

"One point is enough for our qualification, but we need the 3 points to regain confidence and to make this team unbeatable again."
Celades also declared that the team rather wanted to stay in Spain, because of the conflict in Afghanistan. But he doesn't believe that this situation will influence the game somehow.
Anderlecht from his side, can only be happy with a victory. A real stunt is necessary to forget the bad prestations in the league. A victory is alsp needed for keeping a chance to pass through the next round in the Champions League.
Alin Stoica is again under fire by manager Verschueren, but there is a chance that he will play tomorrow, on the midfield, as a support for the strikers (Mornar and Aruna).
What will it be? Anderlecht, still without De Bilde, Jestrovic, and the suspended De Boeck and maybe without Doll (just recovered from an injury), probably won't make a chance against Real Madrid. But the spanish team is missing several players too, like Campo, Helguera, Geremi and Flavio. It's also doubtfull that Roberto Carlos wil play. So the game seems to come on the right moment for the Mauves.
The Danish Knud Erik Fisker is the referee. The game starts at 8.45pm in the Constant Vanden Stock Stadium.
