2.35Tip and bets
Gent will certainly strive for victory today – 12th place in the table clearly does not correspond to its ambitions. The Buffalos will clearly bet on attack – the opponent is vulnerable in defense and inferior in the selection of players. At the same time, Gent is also far from perfect at its goal, the visitors play attacking football and have scored a lot in recent matches, the match will certainly be productive.
We believe that the match will be productive. Betting Tip - total over three goals . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.79
Bet on the outcome
Gent is the favorite of the match - despite not the best start, the "buffalos" have a serious advantage in experience and class and in the last five home matches they have won four victories over their opponents. Mechelen looked solid in the last matches, but lacks stability, against Gent in recent years it has rarely been possible to cling to points, it makes sense to give preference to the favorite.
