Hugo Broos will change his usual formation for the home match against Racing Genk. He usually chooses for a 3-5-2, but now he will play with 4 defenders. Anthony Vanden Borre, who has his birthday tomorrow, will probably play.

"Zewlakow didn't play for a month, he needs match rhythm, and will play with the reserve team", said the coach.

If we play with four defenders, there will be more space on the wings, so we have more offensive opportunities then. Genk will play with one striker in Brussels.

Peersman has mentally recovered, and will replace Zitka as goalkeeper. One midfielder will fall out of the team. Pär Zetterberg didn't train because of a minor injury yesterday, but is available for Sunday. Also Wilhelmsson has recovered from his injury.

Mbo Mpenza and Aruna Dindane are the two strikers, as usual. "It would be ridiculous to blame them", said Broos. Oleg Iachtchouk isn't satisfied with this situation. He is the only striker who is able to score for Anderlecht at this moment. He is very disappointed with Broos' decision.
