The free-scoring Genk visit the stuttering Anderlecht on matchday five of the Jupiler Pro League on Sunday with three crucial points up for grabs. This match at the Lotto Park in Anderlecht between the 10th-placed ‘Purple & White’ and the 7th-placed ‘Blue-White’ could continue to excite neutrals, and our match prediction is for over 2.5 goals to be scored.
Anderlecht’s six points (W2, L2) put them only three points behind top four after four rounds. Genk’s seven points (W2, D1, L1) put them a point above their hosts.
Anderlecht eked out a narrow 1-0 home win over Kortrijk on Thursday to bounce back from the 3-0 defeat to Royale Union SG last weekend. They have now posted seven wins from their last nine competitive games (L2).
The hosts have a stronger record at this venue, as they have won all five home competitive matches this season.
Looking to break that run would be the visiting Genk, who thrashed Beveren 4-0 on the last matchday for a second win in their last three games (D1). That is a strong rebound after starting the league campaign with a 2-1 loss at Waregem.
That defeat though, highlights Genk’s concerns on the road, as they have failed to win five of their last six away league games (D2, L3), including one defeat via penalties.

Our Anderlecht vs Genk Prediction
Genk have been one of the most exciting teams of this campaign so far, leading in the number of goals scored (12) and expected goals (xG – 10.3). Anderlecht scored just three goals this season, but with 7.3 xG they have underperformed and will be keen to start converting them into goals. That could start here, as the hosts look to kickstart their campaign.
Nine of Genk’s last ten league matches in the regular season have been high-scorers. That could continue here as well, which is why our Anderlecht vs Genk prediction is over 2.5 goals.
