Genk vs. Oostende:  Tipps, Prognosis & Odds - 07/30/2021 - BELGIUM: Jupiler League


First win of the season for the Smurfs?

The runner-up from Genk welcomes Oostende fifth last season. The home side opened the Jupiler League season at Standard Liège last Friday and scored 1-1 at the Maas. For their part, the footballers from the North Sea started with a clear 3-0 defeat against the zebras from Charleroi.

Genk - Statistics & Current Form

As described, the KRC picked up a draw in Liège at the season opener. A performance-based result, but Genk only scored the deserved equalizer in the second minute of stoppage time. The strong offensive missed the otherwise very good efficiency in the match.

It certainly plays a role here that Paul Onuachu's thoughts may not be quite on the point. Last season's top scorer is still swarmed by top European clubs and in Genk you can still not be sure that he will not change employers during the current transfer phase.

At least Theo Bongonda, the club's second best striker of the past season, continued to be on target and secured the point with his goal at the guest appearance in Wallonia. The 25-year-old had already struck in the previous Super Cup against Bruges and, unlike Onuachu, his whereabouts with the 2019 champions have been determined.

Bongonda with the next hit?

In view of his currently good form and the fact that there is no unrest around him, the odds on his next goal celebration are associated with sufficient value in the match between Genk and Bruges.

An offensive fireworks display is not to be expected from the home side, as the Smurfs have the start of qualifying for the Champions League in the back of their minds, which will take place next week with the home game against Shakhtar Donetsk. Against this background, the team of coach John van den Brom will manage its forces in a controlled manner.

Expected formation of Genk:

Vandevoordt - Lucumi - Arteaga - McKenzie - Munoz - Hrosovsky - Heynen - Bongonda - Ito - Thorstvedt - Onuachu

Ostend - statistics & current form

The kickers from the North Sea have been represented in the Belgian House of Lords for eight years and have played a rollercoaster ride. After it was enough for a single-digit placement in 2015 and 2016 and you could even get a taste of participating in the Europa League, there was a sudden crash.

Due to financial problems, the belt had to be tightened and the placements fell sharply.

Blessin brought the KV to new life

Things have been going better since last year. The reason can mainly be found in the coaching bench. With Alexander Blessin as coach, the club from West Flanders has noticeably stabilized. The German previously trained in the youth department of RB Leipzig and is completing his first professional coaching station at Oostende.

At the end of last season he was named the best coach in the Jupiler League! With his team he reached fifth place in the final bill and was able to more than double the points gained at the Waterkant compared to the penultimate season.

The return of success was mainly achieved through a stable defense. Only the champions from Bruges and record champion Anderlecht conceded fewer goals until the end of the regular season.

Goalgetter Sakala is no longer on board

On the offensive, however, Fashion Sakala had to be surrendered during the summer break. This was a painful loss as the striker, who is now kicking for Rangers in Scotland, was the KV's best scorer last season.

The start of the season certainly failed because of its lack. In the 0: 3 against Charleroi, for example, no hit could be marked on their own territory.

Expected formation of Ostend:

Hubert - Hendry - Jakel - Medley - Ndicka Matam - D’Arpino - Boonen - Rocha Santos - D’Haese - Gueye - Kvasina

Direct comparison / H2H

The Flemish neighbors faced each other for the last time last February. At that time, KV prevailed 3: 1 at home. This meant that the home side remained undefeated for the second time after a draw, after the guests had previously had a series of five wins in a row at this pairing.

In addition, the most recent meetings between the two clubs have always been very high in goals: in the last four meetings, an average of 4.5 goals per game were scored! For the next edition of Genk against Oostende, the odds are now tending towards a home win.

Bet base forecast & Belgium Genk - Oostende Belgium tip

Genk already has a relatively large competitive practice at this early point in the season. Before the Jupiler League kicked off last week, the Super Cup was won as a cup against the champions from Bruges. However, the match against FCB was lost and the first game of the season ended with a draw for the runner-up.

For the test of strength between Genk and Ostend, the tip on less than 2.5 goals now appears profitable. Although the home side had the best offensive last season after regular time and the subsequent championship round, the most recent match against Liège showed that the attack line is not yet at operating temperature.

Top scorer Onuachu looks a little distracted as top European clubs try to get him signed. Furthermore, the hosts will use their forces sparingly, because in a few days an important game in the Champions League qualification is on the program.

The guests from the coast acted harmlessly on the offensive at the start of the season and it is obvious that they missed last year's top striker Fashion Sakala. At Bet365, betting odds of 2.20 can be used for the prognosis for the competition between Genk and Oostende.
