Genk - Beerschot-Wilrijk betting tips and odds

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.70 is a solid option. That said, Beerschot-Wilrijk may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

Beerschot-Wilrijk are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of Genk.

Genk are coming on the back of a hard 3:1 loss against KV Oostende in the previous round. Experts gave their opponents a slight edge which, combined with home-field disadvantage, ended in a surprising 3:1.

Beerschot-Wilrijk lost their previous Pro League clash against Mechelen, just like most betting predictions anticipated. Considering how difficult the matchup was for them, though, the match it was fairly close with a draw at half time and 1:2 at the end.

Genk have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

With a loss to Beerschot-Wilrijk on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Pro League match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

With limited means at their disposal, both teams will have to make do with shortened rosters. We’re referring to the fact both teams suffered strings of injuries, rendering a good chunk of both squads unavailable for this match. Genk_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts, while Beerschot-Wilrijk_INJURIES will be missing on the visiting side.
