Genk will be aiming to maintain their attacking momentum when they welcome Beveren in the opening match of the Jupiler League round 4. Following a 3-2 victory over Westerlo, Jess Thorup’s troops played out a thrilling 4-4 draw with Antwerp at the weekend, highlighting their attacking quality but also some defensive weaknesses. Genk have averaged 2.0 goals per game at home across their last 10 matches, while their impressive 2.55 home xG suggests they should create plenty of chances again. Adrian Palacios is the only absentee.
Beveren, meanwhile, will be eager to make amends for a disappointing 4-0 defeat to Waregem. Before that setback, the visitors had shown encouraging form, winning four of their previous five matches. Beveren have also been solid defensively over the longer term, conceding just 0.8 goals per game across their last 10 outings and keeping clean sheets in 40% of those matches. However, facing an in-form Genk side represents a significant step up in quality. Defender Viktor Boone remains sidelined through injury.
As Genk look sharp up front and Beveren struggle at the back, Home Win seems appealing, alongside Genk Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals total (Genk's last two league matches produced 13 goals combined, including an 8-goal thriller against Antwerp).
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Friday 28 August 2026 at 19:45.
