Union Saint-Gilloise vs Genk Prediction: Both teams will find the back of the net

Stade Joseph Marien will be the venue for the round 14 Jupiler Pro League game between Union Saint-Gilloise and Genk. Heading into this game, the two teams are hoping to take a win. How will this game unfold? Below is a match preview and betting opportunity. 

Union Saint-Gilloise

Union Saint-Gilloise's last encounter was against AS Roma in the Europa League. In a game that ended 1-1, Kevin Mac Allister's goal was enough to see this team avoid a defeat, having gone behind in the 62nd minute. However, Union Saint-Gilloise have not lost any of their last matches, defeating Eupen and drawing KV Mechelen. This season, Union Saint-Gilloise have one of the fewest points accumulated after week 13, leaving them seated 12th spot.

Genk

Genk's last league game was against Antwerp, and they won. In that game, Genk scored in each half, with Patrik Hrosovsky scoring a brace. However, Genk have won their last four league games, defeating Beveren, Genk, and St. Truiden. In the league this season, Genk have the most points accumulated by any side, 31, leaving them seated top of the standings. In that run, this team scored 28 goals and conceded 15. 

Expert Betting Tips

Genk are playing so well now, and I do not see them dropping their level of play with the title chase on the line. However, Union Saint-Gilloise have not lost since the end of October and could be a tough team at home. In the meantime, the most recent matches played by these teams have ended in goals, and I expect a similar outcome here. Also, while both teams could work well to avoid a defeat, take Genk to win as the better side.
