Gent take on Genk at Ghelamco Arena in the second round of the Jupiler Pro League.
Gent finished previous season on the 3rd spot and qualified for the Europa League. This summer the hosts played 8 friendlies recording 3 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats. We should mention Gent have already played 3 games this season as they tied Kortrijk (1:1) in the Jupiler Pro League and outplayed Viitorul in the Europa League (5:0, 0:0). We should mention Gent are solid at home as they lost just 3 home games last season.

Genk in their turn finished on 4th spot last season falling 2 points behind Gent. During their preseason the visitors played 6 friendly matches as they recorded 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. They have passed through 2 Europa League rounds already. On top of that, Genk started new Jupiler Pro League season with victory over Oostende (2:1). We should admit strong performance on the road isn’t among Genk’s traits as they won only 3 of their last 13 away matches.
Remarkably, Gent remained unbeaten in their last 5 head-to-heads against Genk recording 3 wins and 2 draws. Considering the above, we expect the hosts to secure confident victory today and extend their impressive home run.
Prediction for the match: Gent to win.
