Prediction: 2-1
Adana
Following a heart-breaking loss to Olympiakos in the Europa League third qualifying round, Genk will look to return to winning ways when they take on Adana Demirspor in a highly-anticipated Conference League qualifier. Genk will be without influential forward Joseph Paintsil in the first leg as the Ghana international misses out through suspension, while both Heynen and Tresor Ndayishimiye are sidelined with injuries.
Adana Demirspor, on the other hand, looked sharp in front of goal in the double-header against Osijek (7-4 on aggregate), but given their shaky defence, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Jupiler League outfit. There are no fresh injury worries in the Turkish side ahead of the trip to Belgium. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Morocco midfielder Younes Belhanda, who has been producing fine displays of late.
