Anderlecht vs Genk Prediction & Betting tips
Both Anderlecht and Genk found their way to the semi-finals of the Croky Cup quite easily. Now the ‘real work’ will begin. It is already a very interesting poster for a semifinal!
Anderlecht:
Anderlecht continues to play good football and actually seems to be getting better and better. The famous ‘process’ in which the supporters must have confidence is slowly beginning to bear fruit. But achieving results systematically, Vincent Kompany is not yet doing that. And it is not that he does not have the material for it as is often suggested with Standard. With a player like Lukas Nmecha, for example, he may well have the best footballing striker in the league.
However, the results are not forthcoming, although. They were able to put down a good series, but it suddenly went completely wrong against Cercle and Kortrijk. Not a single shot between the posts, that’s nothing to write home about. The Purple & White could also only score one point in the last match against Mechelen. In the race for play-off 1 they really had hoped for three points here, but again: the results are not consistent enough. So the question is whether they can convert their relatively good football into important victories, such as this semi-final match against Genk.
Genk:
John van den Brom managed to win the last three games with his team, and that was desperately needed. After a few disappointing weeks, the dismissal was on the table. It made no difference if he had been outside. And then, out of the blue, they win three times. They are back in their shoes for play-off 1 and are in the semi-finals of the cup. It is still crazy how fast things can go in football!
The 4-1 in the quarterfinals of the cup against Mechelen shows that Genk can be there when it has to. It quickly came up 2-0 and steadily extended the lead. They also showed in this match that they are more than just Paul Onuachu, the current top scorer of the Jupiler Pro League. Cyriel Dessers, for example, showed his worth by giving two assists. He could use that very well, because his period at Genk has not yet passed smoothly.
