Genk Mechelen betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 7^th position of the league, with 33 points won, after 10 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Zulte‑Waregem, by (3‑2). In the last match, they won in a home match against RFC Seraing, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 10 points in away matches and 23 points at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 15 goals conceded at home, against 14 goals scored and 22 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Mechelen has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 21 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times but have turned the score around in 4. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 8 of their 22 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Mechelen will try to surprise Genk by showing good football and determination during the 90 minutes. The Antwerp club knows that a draw can be considered a good result, however, they believe in their team's capacity to get the victory. The team requires imposition inside the four lines and should bet on an organized midfield, trying to keep possession of the ball to dictate the pace of the match, and invest in a quick transition between the defensive system and attack, to overcome the marking of the rival and score a goal. The team also needs an alert and dedicated backline throughout the match to hold the opponent.

Confirmed Lineup: Gaëtan Coucke, Thibault Peyre, Sandy Walsh, Lucas Bijker, Rob Schoofs, Vinicius Costa, Geoffry Hairemans, Jordi Vanlerberghe, Kerim Mrabti, Hugo Cuypers, Nikola Storm.
Coach: S. Defour.
