La Louviere look to pull off a major upset as they host Gent, but the hosts head into Saturday's game in mixed form after a 2–1 defeat to St. Truiden. As Gent have found their form of late, we predict a 2-1 away win. La Louviere's main attacking absence remains Mouhamed Belkheir, whose injury leaves the hosts relying on a front line that averages just 1.10 goals per match overall and an even lower 0.50 at home. Defensively, they have struggled at their own stadium as well, collecting only one clean sheet in their last four home games while posting an xGA of 1.67.
Gent, meanwhile, are brimming with confidence after two consecutive league victories, and although Samoise and Delorge-Knieper are sidelined, Hein Vanhaezebrouck’s squad still looks far more balanced. de Buffalo's boast a 40% win rate overall this season, supported by an impressive 3.25 average goals per game at home and 1.50 goals scored on average away. Their recent away profile also includes 33% clean sheets and just 0.83 goals conceded per match, giving them a clear defensive edge.
Given Gent's superior squad depth and stronger metrics in both boxes, Away Win seems like the best betting option for this Jupiler League fixture, alongside Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals as Gent’s matches average 2.70 goals and La Louviere concede regularly.
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Friday 30 January 2026 at 19:45.
