All eyes will be on Cegeka Arena when Genk and Antwerp face off in a highly-anticipated Jupiler League clash. Despite Genk’s recent slump, losing their last four league games, they are still considered favorites to defeat Antwerp on their home turf. Luca Oyen remains sidelined with an ACL injury, and midfielder Bryan Heynen is doubtful for the match.
Antwerp, on the other hand, has also lost their last four league games. Given Genk’s ambition to secure a spot in the Conference League, we anticipate that the visitors will return empty-handed. Former AZ Alkmaar left-back Owen Wijndal is pushing for a place in the starting XI, while defender Bjorn Engels is still recovering from injury. Mark van Bommel is expected to maintain the 4-1-4-1 formation.
Prediction: 2-0
