Our prediction for this Belgium Pro League match:
All eyes will be on Ghelamco Arena when Gent and Club Brugge square off against each other in the Jupiler League round 6. Gent head into the match following the Conference League clash against Rakow, meaning that tired legs could prove to be a big problem for the home team. Keep in mind, though, that De Buffalo’s defeated Mechelen 2-0 in their last home fixture. Philippe Clement’s troops, on the other hand, are eyeing their third consecutive league win.
The reigning champions have been impressive in front of goal of late, and given Gent’s ups and downs at the start of the season, away win should be considered. Even though talented defender Stanley Nsoki is banned for the visitors, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the reigning champions, who are determined to defend their title.
