RSC Anderlecht has continued its competitive form in European competition, securing a 1-0 away victory against PAOK in Thessaloniki. The match was decided in the first minute by Serbian forward Mihajlo Cvetkovic. The win was supported by a disciplined defensive performance, a penalty save by goalkeeper Colin Coosemans, and the leadership of defender Giulian Biancone. Coach Vitor Bruno’s tactics, specifically the partnership between Cvetkovic and Danylo Sikan, were noted as key attacking elements, though midfielder Jayden Onia Seke faced mixed reviews regarding his decision-making. In the transfer market, the club is reportedly interested in 22-year-old Lithuanian midfielder Gvidas Gineitis from Torino. However, a deal may be complicated by a 14 million euro asking price and interest from clubs such as Celtic, Crystal Palace, and RB Salzburg. Additionally, young winger Joshua Nga Kana has attracted significant interest from major European clubs, with Paris Saint-Germain and AS Monaco reportedly monitoring the player. However, Anderlecht’s domestic momentum was recently interrupted by a 1-0 upset loss to SK Beveren at the Freethiel. Yoni Gomis scored the decisive goal in the first quarter of the match following a cross from Ferre Slegers. Despite maintaining significant possession and creating opportunities through Danylo Sikan and Lukas Ambros, Anderlecht could not overcome Beveren’s defense, bolstered by Man of the Match performance from goalkeeper Johannes Schenk.

Regarding the Beveren match, Coach Bruno also addressed the use of new regulations to manage the team's numerical disadvantage after goalkeeper Colin Coosemans was injured.
