Genk vs Oostende Prediction & Betting tips
Saturday evening, the football night in the highest class is kicked off with a match between Racing Genk and KV Oostende. Both teams do not attain the desired level for the time being and losses are absolutely forbidden.
Genk :
Genk has missed his season start with a slight eight points from seven games. However, they could retain their strongholds and have the best midfield of the Jupiler Pro League on paper. Time therefore for a turnaround to make sure that the frustrations in the changing room do not take the upper hand.
Last weekend the derby was lost against Sint-Truiden and such a loss is always harder. Genk played like a well-groomed football but it lacks refinement. As the match progressed, it began to lead more and more ball loss and brought Sint-Truiden into the match. Genk came in after a beautiful free kick and then gave it 2-0 too easily. The match hit was just good for the statistics.
Coach Albert Stuivenberg after the match: “We’ve been backing and still close to the equalizer, but we would not have earned that. The team who wanted to win the most was STVV. We want to get that good feeling. ”
Oostende:
We are seven days away and Ostend could not win any time. Thus the season is even worse than the only possible scenario. The pressure is only getting bigger. The next games will play against Genk, Kortrijk and Club Brugge. Now that Play-off 1 does not seem feasible, the cup is still the only way to get European football.
Last weekend, the important game against Ghent was lost. The quality is good, but luck always falls on the other side. Antonio Milic shoots and hits the bar. Nicolas Lombaerts put the ball away for 0 – 1. It was 0 – 1 at the break. The opponent later broke back, but Oostende did not find the opening for the equalizer. In the lock it is still on a counter and thus the 0-2 finish is on the board.
This week Yves Vanderhaeghe trainer was trained. The Oostende players group needs a new wind. There are frictions in the changing room and Vanderhaeghe was too much the diplomat. There pass several names the revue like Frank Vercauteren and Georges Leekens. Obviously making a good choice will not be easy for the board.
