Will Anderlecht of 1977 Show Up
Galatasaray soccer team is based out of Istanbul, Turkey. They finished in second place, in last years domestic competition, behind the champions Fenerbahce.
Anderlecht soccer team is based out of Brussels, Belgium. The team finished champions in the Belgium domestic division last year.
Today is the first game of 2014 - 15 UEFA Champions League for both clubs.
The game will be played at 'Turk Telekom Arena' in Istanbul, home of Gala.
How is Anderlecht's record against Turkish opponents in Turkey?
I found that it is a decent record of:
Won 2,
Draw 1, &
Lost 2.
Both teams have last met almost 40 years ago, in the 1976 - 1977 'European Cup Winners Cup' competition. After two games, Anderlecht triumphed to a 10 - 2 trashing of Gala, after winning each game with the identical result of 5 - 1.
It is with enthusiastic anticipation, I will be following this game. Let the better team win.
Thank you,
Ben
