Anderlecht faces a crucial European draw on Wednesday, where the club will learn its first opponent in the Europa League qualifiers. After a disappointing season, where it only achieved fourth place in the league and lost the cup final to Union SG, the pressure is high to perform better this year. The Belgian record champion is determined to reach the League Phase of the Europa League after a disastrous European campaign last season. Anderlecht was eliminated early by BK Häcken in the Europa League qualifiers, and they also failed to reach the Conference League after a defeat against AEK Athens. The first qualifying round is scheduled for July 23, and the draw on Wednesday at 1 PM will determine who the opponent will be. Anderlecht must be particularly cautious of teams like Besiktas JK, which is considered a tough opponent. Other potential opponents like FC Twente, Tromsø, and St. Gallen are manageable but should not be underestimated. The Brussels club hopes for a favorable draw to achieve a better start to the season.
