Although last week Anderlecht conceded a goal in the final minutes for a draw against Hammarby in the first clash between the two teams in the Europa League, the Belgian team can be satisfied with this result. Just before the equalizer, the hosts were reduced to ten men due to a red card, and now the return match will be played in Belgium, where Anderlecht logically looks to have better chances of achieving final success.
Both teams know how to scoreHammarby is not a team that relies solely on its defense, and it is unlikely to come out with an overly cautious tactic in the return match. This creates conditions for an open match, where both teams can create scoring opportunities. Statistics also support such a scenario, as in eight of Anderlecht's last nine matches and in six of Hammarby's last eight matches, there have been goals at both ends.
Prediction: Both teams to scoreI expect Anderlecht to be the more active team in front of their home crowd, but Hammarby has already shown that they possess attacking qualities and will find it hard to settle for the role of a defending team. I believe both teams will find a way to the opponent's goal.
