Gent - Westerlo predictions

This is a fairly one-sided matchup in the hosts’ favour. While there may be a tiny chance of a draw or even an upset, we wouldn’t count on it. Gent winning is by far the most likely outcome.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and Westerlo will be left with slim pickings in this match.

The latest showing from Gent can be called a tour de force. Sint-Truiden were somewhat weaker opponents, true, but 0:2 result in an away game deserves nothing but praise.

Westerlo dropped a half-time lead in their latest home game against OH Leuven. The single point was more than welcome, though, considering their opponents were expected to win despite playing as visitors.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from Gent and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

Given 7 goals conceded in their own net over the past 3 matches, Westerlo's defensive line is much to be desired.

The two teams already met this season, with Gent walking away with a convincing victory. This only further justifies the odds being in the hosts’ favour.
