Prediction: 3-1
RWDM
Genk will be aiming to put an end to their five-game winless run in the Jupiler League when they take on RWDM on Matchday 26. Genk are eager to climb to Championship Group berth and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the newcomers. Joris Kayembe is back from the international duty, while Joseph Paintsil serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
RWDM, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team collecting only one point in total from the last five league matches. The visitors experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to Antwerp and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Genk’s party at Cegeka Arena. Philipe Sampaio misses out through suspension, while both Moussa Sissako and Luis Segovia are sidelined with injuries. In the first half of the season Genk outclassed RWDM 4-0.
