Genk Team News
-enk slightly improved the impression of their game. They have three wins, a draw, and one loss in the last five matches. For now, they are in fifth place, four points behind Antwerp. They ended the previous round with a home win against Standard. That match ended with a score of 1:0. The only scorer in the game was Anouar Ait El Hadj in the 51st minute. The Genk footballers had twenty chances to score; they controlled the ball perfectly in the middle of the field and waited for Standard’s defense to make a mistake, but it didn’t happen. On the other hand, Standard failed to threaten Genk’s defense to a greater extent, and the host deserved to win.
Before that, they beat RWDM 3:1 in a match in which we saw how good this team can be in attack. They scored two goals in the first half and then one more in stoppage time. RWDM scored a goal in the second minute, but after that, they mostly defended against Genk’s violent attacks.

Westerlo vs Genk Prediction
The matches played by these two teams in the past seasons were full of excitement. In the last two games alone, we saw 11 goals. Things are a shade below that level this season, even though both teams are scoring an average of two goals per match.
Genk is in great shape. They have established themselves in the upper part of the table and have been winning lately. They will also be favorites this Sunday.
Westerlo will not surrender in advance but will try to stop the Genk attackers with a dense defense. They will look for their chances in counterattacks, and if the opponent opens up, they can equalize. We expect to see more than two goals in this game.
