Genk vs Leuven Prediction: Home team to repeat history

This Jupiler Pro League matchup for round 14 will take place at Cegeka Arena and will feature Genk playing host to Leuven. In their previous matchup, neither team was successful, so going into this one, they will be hoping for a different result.

Genk - DWWLD

After a 1-1 draw in their previous match in the Conference League against Ferencvárosi TC, Genk come into this matchup with momentum. Daniel Muoz was the lone player from Genk to score, and he did it in the 62nd minute. The goal for Ferencvárosi TC was scored by Aleksandar Pei in the 47th minute. The number of games in which Genk has scored zero points is an intriguing aspect of recent games. If you take their previous six matches leading up to this one, a bet on both teams to score would have lost in five of those matches. In the two matches that came before this one, Genk and Leuven both played in the league, but Genk came out on top in both of those contests. In addition, the host team has not suffered a defeat in any of their previous five league matches played at home.

Leuven - LWLWL

Since Leuven's most recent match in the First Division A competition ended in a loss at the hands of KVC Westerlo, both the team and its supporters will be hoping for a different outcome this time around. During that match, Leuven had 55% possession of the ball and 10 shots on goal, with only 2 of them finding the back of the net. On the other end of the field, Westerlo had 10 shots on goal, with six of them finding their mark. KVC Westerlo got their first goal from Nicolas Madsen in the 64th minute, while their second goal came from Serhiy Sydorchuk in the 69th minute. The fact that the back of the net has been hit 25 times in the last six matches in which Leuven have played in productive contests This results in an average of 4.17 goals being scored in each matchup. The opposing teams have scored twelve of those goals. Prior to this matchup, Leuven had gone winless in their previous two league matches when playing away from home.

Expert Betting Tips

When considering their history together, Genk has always been the superior team, and they have never been afraid to take risks. In this matchup as well, I anticipate the home team to hold the upper hand. In addition, considering that there has always been at least one goal scored during their meetings, I do not anticipate that this one will be any different.
