Player to watch – Anders Dreyer

Anderlecht's Danish forward has been in great form this season, scoring goals and providing assists.

Dreyer top scores in the league for Anderlecht as things stand with 14 goals but fellow Danish international Kasper Dolberg is only two goals behind his teammate.

Chipping in with goals and assists on a regular basis

Dreyer offers more than just goals to this Anderlecht side with the striker producing seven assists in the league so far, a total only equaled by the team's main playmaker Theo Leoni.
