Genk take on the visitors Anderlecht at “Cristal Arena” in the matchday 22 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The game will be played on Sunday, January 21st.
Genk currently occupy the seventh position in the elite division table, holding a battle for a place among top-six clubs. The side participated in 21 clashes, resulting in six wins and nine draws. The club’s offense is doing alright with 29 goals scored while its defense disappoints greatly as it has conceded 28 goals already. Genk feels slightly uncomfortable in face of their supporters, having managed to collect only 11 points in 10 home battles. In the latest fights conducted at “Cristal Arena” the club has lost to Kortrijk 2:3 and Standard Liege 0:2 plus deserved 1:1 draw against Eupen.

Anderlecht belong to the leaders of the Belgian Jupiler League, sitting now on the third place. The team picked up 40 points in 21 encounters played. The side’s attack really amazes with 31 scored goals while its defense is not able to produce the same sort of effectiveness, having conceded 26 goals already. Anderlecht gained five wins and three draws in 10 away games. In the recent battles conducted on the road the team has been smashed 0:5 by Club Brugge KV, but successfully beat Lokeren and Mouscron with the same 2:1 scoreline.
The reverse fixture played earlier in this season was finished with 1:0 triumph of Genk. At this point the hosts cannot show such convincing football as they used to while Anderlecht, on the contrary, are taking on the pace. Both opponents score a lot in this season, therefore, I expect a number of goals combined in their head-to-head.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
