Club Brugge - Genk predictions

It’s easy to point out Club Brugge as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

An away win in this match would be a huge surprise and an equally big achievement for Genk who could consider themselves fortunate if they run away with a point in the bag.

Those who backed Club Brugge to secure a Halftime/Fulltime win in the previous round were given a proper nail-biter. Heavily favoured for a big win, Club Brugge were forced to work hard for three points and can count themselves happy with what they got.

Genk defended their home turf in the previous round and walked away with a 3:2 victory against Kortrijk and three more points on the scoreboard. Considering how much of a favourite Genk were considered, however, some fans were hoping for a flashier finish.

Club Brugge are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 13 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Sunday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

Considering the away team’s recent history, it seems they don’t play their best when they’re visitors. The previous 3 times were marked by 5 goals conceded and the negative trend will probably continue.

Club Brugge previously played this match as the visitors in a previous round of the Pro League and suffered a fairly narrow defeat. Most bookies believe things will end differently this time, pricing a home win at 1.68.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet is easily the smartest choice for this fixture, consider in the teams’ respective histories. It’s a considerably more probable outcome than it seems, so the 1 odds are great value.
