Preview: RSC Anderlecht - Club Bruges KV

The clash between Anderlecht and Club Bruges is usually the most exciting game of the season, and is a guarantee for sensation and tension. The Anderlecht lineup is still a mistery, and some players are still uncertain.


One of them is Nicolas Frutos. He played one half against Real Madrid, but starting this game will probably be too soon for him. If he is able to play, Hassan will move to the bench and Mbark Boussoufa will play as a midfielder. Turkish striker Serhat Akin is still unavailable due to injury, but he could be fit for the Champions League game against Lille on September 13.

Olivier Deschacht, Jelle Van Damme and Nicolas Pareja will probably play in the defence. This means that Roland Juhasz is starting the game on the bench. Anthony Vanden Borre completes the lineup, he is expected to play as right defender this game.
