Anderlecht welcome Ferencvaros to Lotto Park under the leadership of interim boss David Hubert following the sacking of Brian Riemer.
The hosts enjoyed a relatively bright start to the season, picking up 10 points from their opening four Jupiler Pro League games, but have stuttered in recent weeks.
Riemer was shown the door after a 2-0 home defeat to Genk, with the club pointing the finger at poor performances.
In contrast, Ferencvaros have yet to lose in the Hungarian top flight this term and will be keen to pile the misery on their opponents.
Ahead of their Europa League Matchday 1 showdown, we have complied some tips from our wide range of football odds.
And do not forget, you can wager on far more than just the beautiful game at Bet777, with sports betting markets galore available at your fingertips.

Anderlecht vs Ferencvaros Preview
Regardless of whether Riemer’s sacking was harsh, the powers that be at Anderlecht clearly have high expectations.
With three wins, two draws and one defeat from seven league outings, he was axed and replaced by Hubert as the club began the search for a permanent successor.
Hubert’s reign began with a goalless draw against Charleroi and the 36-year-old former midfielder will be desperate to see his side kick off their Europa League campaign with a confidence-boosting victory.
Ferencvaros have enjoyed a perfect start in the Hungarian top flight, with five wins from five games, and will provide a stiff test.
But Pascal Jansen’s men will be greeted by a hostile welcome as the Anderlecht faithful look to roar on their side to a much-needed win amid a period of uncertainty in the dugout.
Latest Europa League Betting Odds
With a home victory priced at 1.94, Anderlecht are clear favourites to win this European clash. But there is better value to be had from a draw, priced at 3.52 in the match result market, or an away win at odds of 3.68.
Anderlecht vs Ferencvarosi Betting Tips
In the first goalscorer market, Kasper Dolberg is the favourite to break the deadlock at 6.30, which is somewhat surprising considering he has netted just once in seven league outings this term.
Team-mate Anders Dreyer has yet to open his account in 2024-25 but odds of 7.20 may be too good to overlook, particularly when you consider the fact he netted 15 times in the Pro League last season.
Bet Builder Quick Bets: Kasper Dolberg to score anytime, Anderlecht to win, over 2.5 goals & BTTS – 6.00
As mentioned, Dolberg has been far from prolific so far this season. But priced at 6.00, our Bet Builder quick bet consisting of the Dane to score, the home side to win, over 2.5 goals and both teams to score is one to mull over.
