Antheunis: "Anderlecht will be champion"

Ex-Anderlecht and Genk coach Aimé Antheunis is the right person to judge which team has the biggest chance of winning the league title: "I'm expecting a fight until the end of the season. A fight which Anderlecht will win."


Antheunis gives two reasons why he thinks Anderlecht has the upper hand: individual talent and the excellent game-play displayed during last week's cup match. "If Anderlecht can maintain the high level of that match I don't see anyone else winning the title." Additionally, the ex-national coach thinks it's wrong to believe Genk displays a bigger desire to win. "The will to win is always present in Anderlecht. If it doesn't come naturally to the team, it will be forced upon them."

Antheunis claims the result of sunday's game will not be decisive. "Even if Anderlecht lose, everything will still be possibble."
