Genk and Westerlo will seek to recover from their false starts in the Jupiler Pro League when they meet in Round 2. Both heading into this game without a point, goal difference places hosts Genk 12th and Westerlo 18th. In our prediction for this match, we will be backing Genk to extend their good run against Westerlo.
Genk will be back at home looking to recover from their 2-1 defeat at Zulte Waregem. The matchday one performance started on a high but ended in heartbreak after Genk’s first-half lead was cancelled by two late goals from their hosts, Waregem.
More discipline in defence will do them good, given they’ve conceded in three of their last five meetings with Westerlo even though they’re unbeaten in the process.
Westerlo last beat Genk in 2012. They will be desperate to stop their poor run in this fixture after being handed a heavy defeat on matchday one.
The visitors were left licking wounds after falling 5-1 at home to Royale Union SG. Norman Bassette shot Westerlo into the lead in the game, and they had a respectable performance in the first half even as USG equalized.
The calamity, however, came in the second half as they conceded four goals without response. The visitors are on a run of 17 winless matches against Genk, a side unbeaten in eight home matches.
