Genk Kortrijk betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be somewhat unbalanced, given that despite the two teams are making unsatisfactory campaigns, Genk has been growing in production, while Kortrijk has been in a bad phase and lost the last eight matches. In addition, Genk have performed well in their home stadium where they have won 23 of 33 points, while Kortrijk is not sure what it is to win away from home for 6 games, counting all the competitions they contested. In view of these factors, we believe Genk will play the best squad and play control, take advantage of Kortrijk's defensive flaws and win the 3 points without much difficulty.
