Genk vs Antwerp Prediction: None of these sides is worth backing

Cegeka Arena will host the Jupiler Pro League game between Genk and Antwerp. Both teams come into this game following consecutive defeats. Which side will turn things around?

Genk

Genk will look to end their poor run here following a four-game-losing run. In those matches, Genk played Club Brugge and Anderlecht in a two-legged match. In those matches, Genk scored two goals while conceding 13. This season in the league, Genk have accumulated 34 points from 8 games, positioning them 5th in the Jupiler Pro League standings. 

Antwerp

Antwerp have not secured a win since mid-April, and in this game, they will look to right the wrong. Last time out in the league, Antwerp played Cercle Brugge in a home game, and this side were defeated 1-2. However, the prior games to that defeat saw this side lose to Union Saint-Gilloise and Club Brugge, and they are now without a win in five straight matches. This season, Antwerp have accumulated 29 points from 8 matches, positioning them 6th in the league standings. 

Expert Betting Tips

Both teams are struggling and not worth backing. This should be a close game. Expect a focus on defensive play here, with both teams settling for a draw.
