Anderlecht vs Sporting Charleroi Prediction and Betting Tips | December 26, 2025    

Anderlecht will entertain Sporting Charleroi at Lotto Park in the Belgian Pro League on Friday. Both teams will be looking to return to winning ways after dropping points in their previous matches.

Anderlecht, who played out a 2-2 draw against Antwerp on the road in their previous game, have now dropped five points in their last five matches. They sit fourth in the standings on 35 points, trailing the top spot by six points. Closing the gap doesn’t seem too difficult but Anderlecht need to avoid splitting and losing points at this stage of the campaign.

Purple & White have a revenge to take on Sporting Charleroi, who prevailed 1-0 when the sides last met, with Anderlecht playing away from home in that game. The hosts last suffered a defeat at Lotto Park against the visitors in October 2022 (1-0). Charleroi’s best result at the venue since then remains a goalless draw in September 2024.

Sporting Charleroi are winless in their last three matches, drawing twice and losing once. They have been unable to progress in the table, as they sit in the 12th spot on 21 points, just above the drop zone. They could slump into the relegation zone if they fail to claim points in this match.

Les Zèbres, who finished 10th out of 16 teams last season, are currently not on track to improving on that record this term. They boast just five wins out of 19 outings, losing eight times. The visitors have been awful in their recent trips, losing thrice in their last three matches on the road.
