Gent vs Antwerp Prediction: Road team will win

The upcoming Round 27 Jupiler Pro League fixture between Gent and Antwerp will take place at the Ghelamco Arena. In their previous encounter, the two teams played to a goalless draw. Will be a decisive winner in this upcoming match?

Gent - LLLLW

Gent is aiming to replicate the 2-0 Jupiler Pro League victory they secured against Eupen. In that match, Gent maintained 47% possession and made 8 attempts at goal, with 4 on target. The scorers for Gent were Hyeon-Seok Hong (13') and Matisse Samoise (60'). Eupen, their opponents, managed 4 shots at goal, with 3 on target. Gent has struggled to maintain a clean sheet in recent games, with opponents scoring in 5 of their last 6 matches, resulting in a total of 10 goals conceded during that period. Notably, Gent has been unable to secure a victory against Antwerp in their last 14 league encounters and has also experienced a winless streak in their previous 3 home league matches.

Antwerp - WWDWL

Following their recent 0-1 defeat against KV Mechelen in Jupiler Pro League action, Antwerp is eager to bounce back in their upcoming match. In the previous game, Antwerp dominated possession with 66% and made 15 attempts at goal, with 3 on target. However, Mechelen had 6 attempts, with 4 on target, and Kerim Mrabti (57') scored the decisive goal. Despite the setback, Antwerp's defense has displayed resilience, conceding only 4 goals in their last 6 outings, while scoring 8 themselves during the same period. Antwerp's recent record indicates that they have not suffered defeat against Gent in their last 9 away league games and are currently unbeaten in their last 2 league matches on the road.

Expert Betting Tips

Gent is currently not in top form, and I don't anticipate them delivering a strong performance, even with the home advantage. Conversely, Antwerp appears to be the superior team, and considering their favorable outcomes in previous meetings of this fixture, I am favoring them to secure a victory in this match as well.
