Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 3-2
RC Genk
Brondby take on Genk at their Brondby Stadion in the return leg of the Europa League play-off. The Danes suffered a heavy 5-2 loss to Genk in Belgium in the first leg, meaning that they need to record a big win over de Smurfen if they are to make it to the Europa League group stages. Brondby are a real force to be reckoned with at home and the fact that they are undefeated in previous 11 home games in the Europa League is giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Thursday’s football game. The Belgian outfit are likely to adopt a cautious approach and despite the fact that Brondby play well in front of home fans, we do not believe that the Danes are going to overcome the deficit. Anyhow, home win should be considered.
