Prediction: 1-1
Genk
Daio Wasabi Stayen will host Sunday’s matinee between St. Truiden and Genk, the two top-table sides. The Canaries were on the verge of sharing the spoils with Royale Union, but Kevin Rodriguez’s late goal eventually spoiled their party. St. Truiden are undefeated in the previous five home games, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Genk. Aboubakary Koita is on international duty, while fellow forward Shinji Okazaki misses out with injury.
De Smurfen came from behind to share the spoils with Cercle Brugge, with substitute Andi Zeqiri scoring the equalizer. The Switzerland international is pushing for a start, while both Bilal El Khannous and Joris Kayembe Ditu are on international duty. Anyhow, we are tempted to put our money on draw this time out as St. Truiden are tough to beat in front of home fans.
