Anderlecht welcome Charleroi to Lotto Park for a Belgian Jupiler League matchday eight fixture on Saturday. The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Genk at the same venue in midweek.

Jarne Steuckers missed a penalty for the visitors in the seventh minute but Mujaid Sadick put Genk ahead 30 minutes later. Noah Adedeji-Sternberg stepped off the bench late in the game to ensure the result in the 86th minute.

Charleroi, meanwhile, saw off Beerschot VA with a comfortable 3-0 home win. Daan Heymans, Grejohn Kyei and Antoine Bernier scored a goal each to guide their side to all three points.

The victory saw The Zebras climb to third spot in the table, having garnered 12 points from seven games. Anderlecht dropped to fourth spot, also on 12 points.

Anderlecht vs Charleroi Prediction

Anderlecht would have been disappointed to see their unbeaten start to the season ended against Genk. They have an opportunity to bounce back immediately in front of their fans and have won six of the last seven head-to-head games, including the last three on the bounce.

Charleroi, for their part, have started the season impressively. They won their most recent league game and fans will be hoping the club breaks their trend of alternating between a win and a loss across their last five league games.

Draws have been a rare occurrence in this fixture, with none of the last nine games ending in a share of the spoils. We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.

Prediction: Anderlecht 1-1 Charleroi
