(Agg. 2 – 2)
Anderlecht welcome FK Rostov to the Stade Constant Vanden Stock to contest the second leg of the third round Champions League qualifiers and the match should prove to be another entertaining encounter.
Anderlecht Match Betting News
Anderlecht were widely tipped to see off FK Rostov in the first leg of the third round Champions League qualifiers but Rene Weiler’s men came unstuck against the plucky Russian outfit.
Despite taking the lead twice during the game, Anderlecht were pegged back on both occasions and as a result, the Belgians still have a bit of work to do heading into the second leg at the Stade Constant Vanden Stock on Wednesday night.
The two away goals scored on the night means that Anderlecht certainly hold the advantage ahead of the game but it has to be said that Weiler will not be allowing his players to take their eyes off the ball, especially after the events of the first leg.
FK Rostov Match Betting News
FK Rostov have made it a bit of a habit to cause upsets and they did so once again by claiming a hard fought 2-2 draw in the first leg of the third round Champions League qualifiers last week.
Admittedly, manager Kurban Bekiyevich Berdyev would have wanted his side to claim the victory at home and the concession of the two goals gives the Russian newcomers an uphill task heading into the second leg at Belgium in midweek.
Nonetheless, Rostov seem to enjoy playing under difficult circumstances and one can be sure that Selmashi will give Anderlecht another very tough assignment this Wednesday.
Anderlecht vs FK Rostov Match Prediction
Anderlecht remain favourites heading into the second leg due to the quality in their side as well as the two away goals scored last week but one should expect FK Rostov to put in another good display.
The Belgians will be made to work hard on the night and if they are able to cut out mistakes, a home victory looks set to be on the cards.
