Genk - Antwerp betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.00, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

The matchup this Sunday is rather one-sided, with Antwerp seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 3.85, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

The previous Pro League round brought a morale-boosting away victory for Genk who managed to withdraw the first-half pressure and inflict a lethal blow in the second half to claim a Gent triumph.

The away team ended the previous league matchup with a 0:0 draw, and the two teams were neck-to-neck throughout the game. The 2.75 odds didn’t exactly favour Antwerp, so the fact that a home game ended with such a lukewarm score is not all bad.

With 8 goals in their previous 3 Pro League matches, Genk’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

Scoring more than 5 times over their past 3 home games, Antwerp have been playing with remarkable consistency lately. Although they’re the visitors this time, it’s an impressive record.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Pro League season, the hosts already recorded a victory over Antwerp. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the 888Sport priced at 2.07 odds.
