Genk - KV Oostende betting tips and odds

Most fans are expecting nothing short of a decisive victory for Genk. Though an upset is not impossible, it’s extremely unlikely that this match will end in anything that’s not a home win.

The current perspective makes the situation crystal clear. Given the superiority of Genk and the 9.00 odds given to KV Oostende to win, it is evident that anything but a home win would be an incredible shock.

An expected stalemate was all Genk were able to take away from their trip to Mechelen in the last round of the Pro League. They struggled to break through in the first half and ended up settling for a point against all odds.

KV Oostende entered their previous Pro League bout as the underdogs but managed to maintain a quiet stalemate throughout the match. Their home supporters weren’t exactly treated with excitement, but the draw is an overall success considering the vastly unfavourable betting odds.

Genk can boast over 5 goals scored during their past 3 away games. Seeing how playing at home is generally seen as an advantage, we can expect their attackers to perform just as well this Saturday, if not better.

According to the recent head-to-head records, Genk already has a win over the away team recorded earlier in the season. It was a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless, justifying the 1.34 odds on a home win.

On Saturday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

Going for a -1.5 Handicap on the favourite’s score is the best way to get some value out of this match. You’ll eliminate the possibility of a draw, for one. More importantly, this way you might actually get a decent payout for backing the stronger team.
