Silkeborg vs Gent Prediction: 8/8/2024

Silkeborg’s recent home performance has been quite poor, with seven losses in their last ten top-flight matches and a concerning total of 21 goals conceded during these games. In contrast, Gent has been exceeding expectations this season, securing four wins from their last nine away matches in a highly competitive league.

Silkeborg has focused on defensive solidity in their recent home fixtures, allowing just four goals in their last 21 top-flight games. Furthermore, 14 of their last 17 home matches have seen under 3.5 goals scored. Similarly, 17 of Gent’s last 21 away matches at this level have also featured fewer than 3.5 goals, indicating that this game is likely to be low-scoring.

When Gent plays away in the Conference League, the matches tend to lack excitement, with at least one team failing to score in 14 of their last 21 away games. Silkeborg has experienced a similar trend at home, with both teams scoring in just two of their last nine matches at this level. Therefore, a low-scoring affair is expected.

 

Prediction

Gent has been consistently strong defensively, evidenced by their record of 15 wins and five draws in their last 20 top-flight matches. Conversely, Silkeborg has struggled at home, remaining winless in their last nine league games, with six of those ending in defeat.

Prediction: Silkeborg 0 : 2 Gent
