Anderlecht or Draw — 75% confidence

Anderlecht have avoided defeat in eight of their last ten head-to-head meetings with KV Mechelen, winning six of them. KV Mechelen are winless in the league through five matches, having lost three and drawn two while conceding an average of 2.6 goals per game overall and 3.5 goals per game at home.

Over 2.5 Goals — 72% confidence

Nine of the previous ten head-to-head fixtures between these clubs have produced over 2.5 goals, with the series averaging 3.8 goals per match. KV Mechelen's home games this season have seen heavy goal volume, including a 3-3 draw with Standard Liege and a 0-4 defeat to KVC Westerlo.

These two calls are about different parts of the match (double chance and total goals), so neither one determines the other. The figure shown is the lower of the two — a combo can never be more likely than its weaker leg.
