The head‑to‑head record at this stadium couldn't be more balanced, as it shows 2 draws and 3 wins for each team in the last 8 head‑to‑heads. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, on 10‑11‑2019, for the First Division A, Gent won by (0‑2). J. David (47' ) and L. Depoitre (2' ) scored the goals of the match for Gent.

Analysis Genk

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 38 points won, after 11 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Kortrijk, by (2‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Excel Mouscron, by (2‑0). In the last 10 home league matches Genk has a record of 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 21 points out of 30 possible.

They haven’t lost any of the last 8 home matches for this competition. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 1‑1 (4 out of 10 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 10 of the last 10 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 21 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times, but have turned the score around in 5. In the last 10 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Genk comes from two consecutive defeats in the Belgian championship and this ended up hindering their plans, after all they've been fighting for the leadership. As they will play at home, they have to seek to recover and victory becomes mandatory. No matter how much they respect the opponent, they won't ease the pressure at any time, ideally they'll try to open the scoreboard early in the match. Doubting the quality of the home team would be madness, and they will be able to win if they play well.

Confirmed Lineup: Danny Vukovic, Gerardo Arteaga, Jhon Lucumi, Carlos Cuesta, Daniel Muñoz, Angelo Preciado, Bastien Toma, Bryan Heynen, Junya Ito, Theo Bongonda, Paul Onuachu.
Coach: B. Storck.

Analysis Gent

The away team is currently in the 13th position of the league, with 26 points won, after 8 wins, 2 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Beerschot, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Antwerp, by (0‑1). In the last 10 away league matches Gent has a record of 4 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 5 of the last 11 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 21 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

That Gent is underperforming is nothing new, but for changes to happen, they will have to play differently. The team has the capacity to fight for something bigger, so they have to work harder to sustain a good sequence of results. Overall, matches are difficult, so they should adapt to each match. About the current duel, they need to be cautious, but the team knows how to explore the spaces left to surprise the opponent.

Confirmed Lineup: Sinan Bolat, Michael Ngadeu, Nurio Fortuna, Milad Mohammadi, Andreas Hanche-Olsen, Niklas Dorsch, Sven Kums, Sulayman Marreh, Alessio Castro-Montes, Roman Yaremchuk, Osman Bukari.
Coach: H. Vanhaezebrouck.
