Genk, Recent FormThe Genk players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Standard Liège recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat. They achieved 60% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Standard Liège's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 6 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
They have been performing well at Cegeka Arena recently and are unbeaten in their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Daniel Muñoz has scored in each of Genk's last 4 league games.
Gent, Recent FormIt's fair to say Gent will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Union Saint-Gilloise, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 60% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Union Saint-Gilloise who had 12 attempts and 4 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 9 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 13 of their 15 games.
Gent will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement. They've been unbeaten in 14 of their 15 league games this season.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Gent, Tarik Tissoudali will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
In each of the previous 3 matches against Genk, De Buffalo's have let in at least one goal.
Genk have been unbeaten the last 3 times they have faced Gent in the league.
Joseph Paintsil will be looking to get on the scoresheet for Genk against Gent in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
With no real injury worries, Genk manager Wouter Vrancken will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Gent manager Hein Vanhaezebrouck ahead of this clash, with Laurent Depoitre (Achilles tendon) missing out, which gives Vanhaezebrouck a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
