Antwerp will be hoping to maintain their promising start to the season when they welcome Genk in a highly-anticipated Belgian clash. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Reds have collected maximum points from their opening two games, beating Beveren 2-1 before cruising past Kortrijk 3-0. Anthony Valencia is certainly one to watch after scoring a brace in the Kortrijk triumph, while German boss Marvin Compper deserves plenty of credit for the team's strong start. Antwerp have won 50% of their last 10 matches, scoring 1.40 goals per game.
Genk, meanwhile, will be looking to build on a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Westerlo. The visitors have won 40% of their last 10 games and have been particularly dangerous going forward, although their away record is less convincing, with just a 29% win rate. Genk have also conceded 1.71 goals per away game during that period. Nkuba and Palacios are both sidelined with injuries, but neither absence is expected to be a major concern. The H2H record slightly favours Genk, who have won 13 of 32 meetings.
As 78% of the last 32 H2H meetings produced at least two goals, we are tempted to bet on Over 1.5 goals, alongside Both Teams to Score and Antwerp or Draw (BTTS landed in 56% of their previous 32 meetings).
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Saturday 22 August 2026 at 19:45.
