ℹ️ Team News: Genk

Nicolás Castro (Vertebra injury), Adnane Abid (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), Luca Oyen (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Tolu Arokodare (Torn Meniscus) won’t be available for Genk manager Wouter Vrancken. Matías Galarza will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

In our view, Blauw-Wit will probably use the 4-2-3-1 system in the match and select Maarten Vandevoordt, Daniel Muñoz, Carlos Cuesta, Mark Mckenzie, Gerardo Arteaga, Bryan Heynen, Patrik Hrosovsky, Joseph Paintsil, Bilal El Khannous, M. T. Ndayishimiye and Ally Samatta.

📰 Team News: Union Saint-Gilloise

Due to a completely injury-free group ready to go, the Union Saint-Gilloise manager Karel Geraerts does not have any fitness worries at all ahead of this clash.

We are inclined to think that Les Unionistes appear most likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 system, giving starts to Anthony Moris, Siebe Van Der Heyden, Christian Burgess, Ross Sykes, Loïc Lapoussin, J. Thierry Lazare, Senne Lynen, Oussama El Azzouzi, Simon Adingra, Yorbe Vertessen and Gustaf Nilsson.

💭 Prediction

We’re of the view that Union Saint-Gilloise may not find it easy to find the net against this KRC Genk side who we think might well just have the edge.

We’re therefore tipping a good tussle with a 1-0 victory for KRC Genk at the end of this one.

A close call.
