Genk vs Anderlecht Prediction & Betting Tips (4 December)

Genk calmly disposed of FC Brussels in the previous round at home 3-0. Following this victory, Genk piled up the victories by beating Westerlo in the league 0-1 and Braga in the Europa League 3-4. Slight setback on the other hand with a parity score at La Gantoise 1-1 and a defeat at home against Mechelen 0-1. Last week, back in the Europa League league phase where it is 9th, KRC got the better of FC Basel 2-1 as well as Louvain, a few days later in the championship 2-1. In the championship, Genk narrowly occupies 6th place.

Opposite, we find the current 3rd in the Pro League, Anderlecht, in very good form since last weekend, by beating Union Saint-Gilloise at home 1-0, Anderlecht simply achieved a fourth consecutive victory in the championship after the successes against RAAL La Louvière 0-1, Club Bruges 1-0 and Mechelen 3-1. Of the 4 opponents, 3 are part of the top 6 of the elite. The Mauves have lost only one of their last twelve matches in all competitions 7v, 4d, 1d. 

At Genk, the unfortunate Ken Nkuba (starter in his last performances) is seriously injured in his heel and sidelined since November 6. He will not play this evening like the Japanese international Ito (ex-Reims, 2 goals in the league) and the senior defender Kayembe. On the other hand, Genk will be able to rely on the imperial Daan Heymans (2 goals in the league), recruited this summer at the expense of Charleroi after a quality campaign in the league last year (14 goals, 3 assists). Scorer against Basel in C3, the South Korean international Hyeon-Gyu Oh (5 goals in the league) is at the disposal of his coach as is the Moroccan international, just back from injury, Zakaria El Ouahdi (4 goals in the league in just 10 appearances), decisive passer upon his return to C3 against FC Basel after an absence of almost 7 weeks. Suspended in the league for Anderlecht, Nathan Saliba (Canadian international) will play today, at least he is eligible.

On the other hand, the young Keita (no appearance this season in the league) and the starting defender Kana remain OUT. Eden Hazard's brother, Thorgan (4 goals, 3 assists), will likely start since he will serve a suspension in the league this weekend. Note the positive impact of Ecuadorian international Nilson Angulo (3 goals, 5 assists) without forgetting to mention the promising Mihaljo Cvetkovic (Serbian U19 international) author of 3 goals in the league. Belgian U17 international Nathan De Cat (1 goal, 1 assist in 16 appearances) will probably be lined up, as will the excellent full-back Ludwig Augustinsson, who has been levitating for three seasons after tumultuous spells in La Liga at Mallorca and Sevilla FC.
