Dender vs Gent Prediction: Bet on goals in this fixture

Van Roystadion will host the round 21 Jupiler Pro League game between Dender and Gent. The home team won the last fixture of this game and will hope for a similar result here. Can Gent away from home get a win this time? Below, I give full match previews and make predictions.

Dender

Dender's last league game was against Anderlecht, and they secured a 2-3 win. In that encounter, Dender came from behind after a first-half defeat to take maximum points, thanks to Aurelien Scheidler and Bruny Nsimba striking in the second half to see them take maximum points. In fact, Dender have lost only once in their last four games, coming against Antwerp in week 19. However, other games saw this team defeat Westerlo and Kortrijk, ending 1-0 and 0-3. With 27 points, Dender sit 10th in the league standings, scoring 27 goals while conceding 33.

Gent

Gent are coming off a league defeat against Union Saint-Gilloise and will hope to turn the tables. In a game that ended 1-3, Andri Gudjohnsen's strike in the 60th minute was the only positive this team could take after going behind by three goals. Heading into this game, Gent have only two wins in their last five matches, coming against TSC and Standard Liege. In other games, this team lost to Larne while drawing Cercle Brugge. This season, Gent have 30 points from a possible 60, leaving them seated in the 6th spot.

Expert Betting Tips

Dender are competing so well, just like Gent, but they will have a lot of defensive work to do, as they have struggled in that aspect this season. On the road, this will not be an easy task for Gent after losing their first leg of this fixture. The two teams have their weaknesses, but their strength lies in attack. I predict this game will end with goals, and looking at their past meetings, I have no doubt about this option. Also, while this should be a tough game, I do not see either side leading in the first half as a draw should do.
