Match summary

Gent vs Anderlecht comes to the Planet Group Arena on Sunday 25 October 2026 for Matchday 9 of the Belgian Pro League, where our model makes Gent the result pick and leans towards either side winning without a draw.

Why this pick?

Our model goes with Gent, and the case starts with the venue: the league leaders have won seven of eight and lost none, and playing at the Planet Group Arena adds a moderate edge. The strongest argument on the other side is Anderlecht's rating, which sits slightly above Gent's on our long-run strength measure, with the visitors clearly above the league average. Our goal model also leans mildly that way. What keeps the pick standing is Gent's own level, above the division's average, and a record of only four goals conceded in eight games. No single point settles it — the overall view does, and the call is narrow.
