2.19Tip and bets
Genk have improved recently, beat Brugge, and were stronger than Beerschot in a goal shootout when playing with a man down. It is obvious that the Miners will be looking to build on their success today and move up the table, and the hosts are quite capable of setting themselves the highest goals. Westerlo are inferior in class and have not beaten Genk in 11 games in a row, and this streak is unlikely to end today.
We think that the guests have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on Genk . This bet is offered with odds of 2.09
Bet on total
Genk have played boldly and effectively in recent matches, today the hosts only need a win and they will certainly not change their style. Westerlo is very vulnerable in defense, but at the same time they also play attacking football and score a lot, in five matches of the current season 13 goals have been scored against the opponents - it makes sense to count on a goal extravaganza in such a match.
Bet - total over three goals. This bet is offered for 1.65
Bet on corners
Genk are the favourites and will probably dominate for the entire 90 minutes – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners for Genk. This bet is offered for 1.81
