This game looks like a formality for Anderlecht after they beat TNS 3-1 away in the first leg. Let's take a closer look at this clash.
Anderlecht - TNS
In the opening game of the Belgian season the hosts trailed 0-1 at half-time but ended up convincing 4-1 winners over AS Eupen. Key forward Lukaku wasn’t in the squad and is likely to start today. Suarez did his duty as always and scored 2 goals in the above game. Logic would suggest they will conserve energy today so Suarez may remain on the bench and Brazilian Rubenlinson Kanu handed his place. Their next game in Belgium is against Charleroi.
The New Saints of Oswestry Town & Llansantffraid will be playing for their pride. They don’t have much quality and no matter the result will not come under any criticism. They will be seeking to avoid decimation and have no injury or suspension concerns ahead of the game.
Selection: I don't see the hosts have any trouble to win this game but they have no reason to pile on the goals. The visitors will try and put in a dignified performance. The Asian handicap is at +2 goals. If you want a risky bet I'd take the Asian Handicap away win.
