Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Leuven
After rolling over St. Truiden 4-0 in the Belgian Cup quarter-finals, Genk will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Leuven in the Jupiler League round 21. De Smurfen are eyeing their tenth consecutive win at home ground, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. Korea international Hyeon-Gyu Oh is pushing for a start after scoring a brace against the Canaries, while fellow forward Yira Sor remains in the recovery room.
Chris Coleman’s troops, on the other hand, failed to upset Club Brugge in their Belgian Cup clash and given their four-game winless run on the road in all competitions, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the league leaders. In their last meeting at Cegeka Arena, Genk defeated Leuven 3-1. All Banzuzi, Verstraete, and Tsoungui should miss out with injuries for the visiting side.
