Genk take on the visitors Antwerp at “Cristal Arena” in the round 28 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The game will be played on Friday, February 23rd.
Genk have recommended themselves as tough fighters like in the Belgian football, like on the European level. The side performed quite decently in the UEFA Europa League, however, in order to claim for the trophy “De Smurfen” have to engage top class players. So far Genk do not impress in this season, sitting now on the sixth place in the Belgian Jupiler League standings with 38 points gained after 27 matchdays behind. At this moment the team is in a superb form as it has not been beaten across four latest battles. In the recent encounters conducted at “Cristal Arena” Genk defeated Zulte Waregem 3:1 and broke Kortrijk 1:0 within the Belgian Cup.

In their turn, Antwerp only surprise in this season as the club is fighting for a place in the Eurocups for the next season and it is succeeding in it so far. Nevertheless, at this point the side is not in its best shape, having failed to deserve a victory across six tackles in a row. Antwerp currently occupy the seventh position in the Jupiler League table with having failed against Kortrijk with a smashing 0:4 scoreline and gained 1:1 draw vs. Charleroi.
Genk have never lost Antwerp at the home pitch. At this point the teams are practically equal in all aspects, however, the hosts demonstrate powerful football in face of their supporters in this season, therefore, Genk have significant chances for successful outcome of the Friday fight.
Prediction for the match: Genk to win.
