Player to watch: Kasper Dolberg
Kasper Dolberg put in a man-of-the-match performance in Anderlecht's 6-0 victory over Gent last weekend, registering two goals and an assist. The Danish player is the First Division A's top scorer with 10 goals so far. Dolberg was directly involved in at least one goal in the last three clashes between these teams, so he will fancy his chances against Leuven once again.
