I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'two large countries turning on luxembourg' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'predictable way' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'predictable' could be 'usual' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'usual' is found in the answer.
'way' could be 's' (Compass direction - South) and 's' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'a' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for as usual that I've seen before include "In the normal course, routinely" , "In the normal way, habitually" , "Typically" , "Predictably" , "Customarily" .)
