Anderlecht aim to spring a surprise against Arsenal

Anderlecht manager Besnik Hasi believes it would be a mistake to underestimate Arsenal in their Champions League clash on Wednesday.
 

Despite Arsenal's inconsistent start to the new season, which saw them snatch a 2-2 draw against Hull at home on Saturday, the Anderlecht manager insists it would be a grave error to think the English side did not offer a threat.
He said: "Arsenal are playing in the Premier League every week, they are playing big games. We are playing in a smaller competition and we need these type of games to get better. We are a very young, talented team and will get better with these type of games. But for us it will be a mistake if we are thinking because Arsenal are missing some players, and have not been at their top level in their competition, that they will not be difficult opponents tomorrow. That mistake will not happen here."
Anderlecht had opened their Group D campaign with an impressive 1-1 draw away at Galatasaray.
However, the Belgians were brought back down to earth in their second match when Borussia Dortmund ran out 3-0 winners at Constant Vanden Stock Stadium.
