Cegeka Arena will host what promises to be an entertaining Belgian Pro League clash between Genk and Westerlo. Genk aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Waregem, with Akpan, Bibout, Nkuba, and Palacios all pushing for a start after the disappointing season opener. Despite their inconsistent recent form, Genk have been particularly strong at home, losing just once in their last seven matches there. Their defensive numbers are also impressive, with the hosts keeping clean sheets in 67% of their last 10 home games.
Westerlo, meanwhile, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a heavy 5-1 loss to St Gilloise. Defender Reno Munz is likely to miss out with injury, which could further weaken a defence that has conceded 2.2 goals per game across their last 10 matches. Westerlo have struggled badly at home recently, but their away record is considerably better, winning three of their last five on the road. However, Genk have dominated this fixture, winning 11 of the last 15 H2H meetings, with Westerlo yet to beat them in that period.
Genk have won 11 of the last 15 meetings and are expected to respond strongly at home. Therefore, Home Win should be considered, alongside Genk to Score First and Genk Over 1.5 goals (this landed in 11 of the last 15 H2H clashes and both sides have plenty of attacking potential).
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Saturday 15 August 2026 at 19:45.
