Sint-Truiden - Gent predictions

Sint-Truiden are considerably weaker than their opponents in this round of the Pro League, and a victory for them would be quite a surprise. We wouldn’t bet on it, though – at odds of 3.71, it’s not very likely to happen.

The match is most likely to go in the away team’s favour, though it’s by no means a sure thing. With 2.00 betting odds to win, Gent have the upper hand going in, but all three possible outcomes are possible.

Losing is never easy, especially when you have everything working against you beforehand. Sint-Truiden’s last Pro League game saw them as 2.68 underdogs and seeing them stick to a first-half draw already seemed surprising. They failed to keep up the pace after the break, however, losing the game in the end. Still, it was a narrow loss and that one-goal margin (1:0) is not something to moan too long about.

Gent are coming on the back of a 3:1 victory in their most recent Pro League game. They were the hosts in that instance, though, and the matchup against Mechelen was largely favourable as well. In other words – they performed as well as could be expected, but the triumph itself was nothing extraordinary.

Sint-Truiden’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Pro League matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

With 7 goals in their previous 3 Pro League matches, Gent boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

Sint-Truiden may be the underdogs in this game, but they have a curious record against Gent this season. They won the away game they played earlier this season – and did so with a heft goal advantage, too.
