Our prediction
Genk to win · Confidence level: moderate
Genk combine a considerably higher goals-for average with a favourable recent head-to-head record and the market assigns them a clear 65% implied chance of victory. Kortrijk’s low scoring output away from home and their run of defeats before the most recent game make them the underdogs. Given these points, a Genk victory is the most logical single outcome.
