The Europa League Playoff round first leg encounter between Lech Poznan and Genk will be played on Thursday at Enea Stadion. The winner of this tie between the Kolejorz and De Smurfen will enter the Europa League main draw, while the loser will be transferred to the Conference League. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Lech Poznan are now aiming to book their spot in Europe’s second-tier cup competition after being eliminated from the Champions League qualifiers by Red Star Belgrade last week.
The Railwaymen played out a 1-1 draw over the weekend against Kielce in the Ekstraklasa and are now ninth in the league standings with seven points after their first four games of the season.
The hosts have a mixed home record this term, with two wins, one draw and two defeats in five games to date. They also failed to keep a clean sheet in any of those matches.
Meanwhile, Genk are making their first appearance in this season's European qualifying, having finished third in the Belgian Pro League last term.
However, the Blue and Whites have stumbled out the blocks this season, losing two and drawing one of their first three league games before notching up a 2-1 win over OHL this past weekend.
The visitors have played three away games this season, and all of them ended with both teams scoring. They have not kept an away clean sheet in a competitive match since early March.

Our KKS Lech Poznan vs Genk Prediction
Lech Poznan carry plenty of attacking threat, and that has been necessary this season given their defensive frailties, which were evident here at home against Red Star in the UCL qualifiers.
Genk are the favourites in this tie, but they’ve made an unimpressive start to the season. Based on the visitors' away record combined with the hosts' recent performances at this venue, this match looks likely to deliver a few goals. Our Lech Poznan vs Genk prediction is over 2.5 & BTTS.
