Genk vs Zulte-Waragem Predictions

• Waragem have won one of their last nine away league games
• Both teams have scored in Genk’s last five home league games
• No team has conceded more goals than Waragem in the Belgian league this season 

Genk can focus on the league following Europa League exit

Genk have lost just two of their six matches since exiting the Europa League. Being able to concentrate on the league has proved just the ticket for a Genk side who will be looking to propel themselves up the table in the second half of the season.

Sunday’s hosts have scored four times in two of their last three home matches and can capitalise on a Waragem backline which is far from watertight.Both teams have scored in Genk’s last five home matches and a repeat looks likely on Sunday evening.

Waragem’s leaky defence set to be exposed once more

No team has conceded more goals than Waragem in Belgium’s topflight this season. Waragem have conceded 52 times in 24 league games this campaign and they have been particularly generous on their travels lately. Sunday’s visitors have conceded three times in six of their last seven away matches, they look set for another long evening on the road.

My main selection in this one will be Genk to win and both teams to score. Genk have won the last four meetings between these two sides, both teams have scored on three of those occasions and the reverse fixture in October finished 6-2 in Genk’s favour. In the correct score market, I will predict a 3-1 home victory.
