Plzen vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting Tips (23 January)

The Czech team from Plzen is having a very good European campaign and has 9 points after 6 matches played, which is another push to confirm their spot to play in a play-off. The top 8 is even within striking distance, so in the event of success this evening at home, the Czechs could even consider automatic qualification for the round of 16. Especially since they have the weapons to fight, and it's not Manchester United who will say the opposite given that they had to deploy to overcome it during the previous day's 1-2 defeat against the Mancunians. We will still remember that Plzen beat Dynamo kyiv 1-2 and Real Sociedad at home 2-1 without forgetting its parity score with Eintracht Francort at the opening of the competition 3-3 in Germany. In the championship, the residents of the Doosan Arena still retain all their title chances in the mano a mano with Slavia Prague. However, the Czech elite is currently on standby due to the climate.

 Opposite, Anderlecht is in pole position to qualify directly for the round of 16 of this Europa League by being 3rd, behind the two-headed leader, Lazio, and Bilbao. However, the Mauves are not going through a good period through the championship and even remained on 3 defeats in a row with their trip to Kortrijk last weekend to follow. Defeats which took shape against Club Bruges 0-3, for the arrival of the promoted Dender 2-3, and without finding the fault against the leader Genk 2-0. Fortunately, Anderlecht found the strength to win their semi-final first leg of the Belgian Cup against Antwerp, winning 1-0. On the previous day in C3, the Belgians beat Slavia Prague 1-2, thus rectifying their two points sharing with Porto 2-2, and the Latvians FC Riga 1-1. 

Still absent and has been for many months now, Durosinmi will not play this evening, nor will Sene (non-eligible), or the Sykora midfielder. On the other hand, absent due to injury for weeks, Matej Valenta has returned to the group but is not certain of playing as a starter.

Author of 8 goals and 4 assists in the league, Sulc will be well operational, the same for Vasulin and Vudra (4 goals, 3 assists in the league for both players), and the Ghanaian striker Adu (4 goals in the league), author of 2 goals and 2 cakes in C3.
