K. Beerschot V.A. in its last official match lost (4-1) against Cercle Brugge, in a match valid for Pro League. Coach D. Kuijt's lined up a 3-4-2-1 formation.

Before the match all forecasts pointed to a defeat. The odds of their win, 5.75 were the best proof of this.

This was certainly not the best performance of the season for the defense. Apostolos Konstantopoulos leads the departmental disaster: with his late interventions and bad passes he allowed many chances to the opposing team's attacks.

On the other hand, the visiting team arrives at this match after a victory in the last round. In a dispute valid for Pro League, Genk, who used a 3-4-3 formation, faced the Club Brugge team with a final score of 3-2.

A very even game was expected, with odds for the home win at 3.60.

The last time K. Beerschot V.A. went up against Genk, it was in Pro League. K. Beerschot V.A., ranked 18th place, started with a 3-5-2 tactic, while Genk, then in 9th place, was charged with a 4-3-3 formation.

These two clubs faced each other for the last time in a match of the 2021/2022 Pro League season. The match, played on 16-01-2022, recorded the 4-1 win for Genk.

Genk analysis

The goal difference is on the negative side for Genk, which after 3 rounds has conceded 5 but has only scored 4.

Genk has a relatively low average of shots towards the goal, with only 4.33 attempts per game, and this is an indication that the team has a poor attack, and therefore scores few goals.

Teams typically have some control over the opponents if they achieve ball possession above 50%. This is the reason why the Genk team usually guns for an average ball possession of 64.67% to control the game.

The adaptation of Ken Nkuba with the new jersey has not been the best. He had another disappointing performance in Genk last game of the season, against Club Brugge. In the clash, the midfielder failed to be effective and did little for the team. Despite the good expectations for the player, his performance is starting to worry.

Bet suggestions for this game:

However, it is important to note that, usually, in the first games of a tournament, the matches have goals in the first half. The teams are still getting familiar, and there is no interest in maintaining any specific result due to the leaderboard.

Corners Top Betting Tips

Genk is usually quite offensive in their matches, and this has resulted in a high average of corner kicks in the competition. Currently, the team averages 8.33 corners per game played. Therefore, it might be interesting to bet on the over corner kicks of Genk in this match.
