Anderlecht sit 31st in the UEFA Europa League on 0 points from 1 match, having scored 1 and conceded 2. The model rates their attack at 0.81× the league average and their defence at 0.81× goals conceded, where 1 is average and a lower defensive figure is better — hard to break down, short of goals. Across their last 5 league matches they have 4 wins and 1 defeat, most recently losing to Lyon 1-2 at home. That leaves them 3 points behind Sparta Praha at the top, in a table of 36. Among the 36 rated sides in the division that is the 24th-best attack and the 2nd-best defence. They scored in 3 of those 5 and kept 1 clean sheet. Next they host Zulte Waregem in the Jupiler Pro League on 19 September 2026, a match the model gives them 40%.
