Westerlo vs Genk Prediction & Betting tips
Westerlo :
Westerlo last weekend swallowed the equalizer in added time and therefore must now really fear for the preservation of 1A. And say it’s so good to see the Gamecocks. Westerlo could already ensure conservation by doing at least as good as competitor Mouscron. The Ceulaer brought Westerlo 0-1 lead after fine play. After the equalizer just before half Silvère Ganvoula Westerlo should take the lead again with a intikker. Waregem received a red card which conservation was assured.
But the contrary happened. Mouscron came ahead against Standard and Waregem started pressing. Strange that coach Jacky Mathijsen did not lock things up. In a scrimmage in front of goal Sander Coopman to score in added time equalizer and so there was a little drama for Westerlo and went from heaven to hell. Therefore, there was a lot of disbelief and disappointment at Westerlo after a strong game against the number three in the league. Much closer you can not come in preserving. “For us, the match lasted two minutes too long,” sighed goalkeeper Koen Van Langendonck.
Frustrating because Westerlo slipped in the final seven contests twelve points from their hands. Hopefully Westerlo recovers in time from this setback. However, a setback is the suspension of Benjamin De Ceulaer. He was suspended this week by the Disputes Committee for three games after his mistake on Brecht Capon last weekend. The tension will be great in the Kuipke.
Probable lineup Westerlo
Of Langendonck, Christensen, Daems, Schuermans, Heylen, Apau, Annys, Hyland, Hamada, Acolatse, Ganvoula
Genk :
Genk won last weekend a nice victory against champions Club Brugge. With the win, Racing is still not completely eliminated for a place in the playoff 1. There was, however, doubt whether the game could go well. There was a lot of water on the field after a heavy downpour.
The home side started strongly and pressed the visitors with their backs against the wall. It was therefore no surprise that the Limbrugers lead ahead Mbwana Samatta. Just before the break it went fast. Alejandro Pozuelo put Samatta route to his second of the evening but not a minute was later Golden Boot Izquierdo make the tying goal. In the second helfde kept Genk easily stand against the pressure of Club Brugge. So deserved victory and as the coach of the opponent could find him. “The Genk victory was deserved. They may not get PO1 and that’s a shame for such a good team. But for us as we tackle here yet never anything”.
Genk continues Sunday depending on other teams but as long as there is a chance, you have to believe in it. Genk will play on Thursday its first leg of the 1 / 8th finals of the Europa League. Ideal for refueling confident for Sunday and also the opportunity to share in Ghent a tap with it on next Sunday.
Probable lineup Genk
Ryan, Uronen, Colley, Dewaest, Castagne, Malinovsky, Pozuelo, Berge, Boetius, Samata, Writers
