Union Saint-Gilloise - Genk predictions

With the 1.70 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Genk, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

It’s highly unlikely that Genk will manage to get some points this round. Union Saint-Gilloise are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

The home team are coming on the back of a somewhat underwhelming victory at Cercle Brugge, but a victory nonetheless. Most Pro League betting predictions expected that they would have a much easier time in that showdown, but they only managed a close 1:2 win after a match-long stalemate.

Genk walked away with a 1:0 home win after their previous home game against Antwerp. They were considered favourites going in, however, so it’s hard to take that match as an example of their current form.

We’ve seen Union Saint-Gilloise and their attacking lineup perform admirably over their latest 3 away games by scoring more than 5 times. They’re the home team this time around – but that should merely serve to push them further.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, Genk's backline has much to be wished for

According to the recent head-to-head records, Union Saint-Gilloise already has a win over the away team recorded earlier in the season. It was a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless, justifying the 1.70 odds on a home win.

This is a solid match for those that like betting on longshots. Our advice is to pick Draw/Home on the Half Time/Full Time market. The probability of winning is not that high if we’re being honest, but it’s the best offer if you’re shooting for betting value.
