Anderlecht – Charleroi

Anderlecht host Charleroi in what promises to be a decisive clash in the top half of the table, with the home side sitting seventh on ten points after three wins, one draw and two defeats and a modest 4‑5 goal tally. Charleroi arrive in Brussels five points clear in fourth place, having won five of their six matches, scoring twelve and conceding only five. The gap in recent form is stark – Anderlecht have dropped points in two of their last three games, while Charleroi remain unbeaten since their sole loss. A victory for the visitors would solidify their push for a European spot, whereas the Rouches will be desperate to close the gap and keep the pressure on the leaders. Both teams will know that the three points on offer could reshape the top‑seven landscape dramatically.
