Genk, Recent FormHaving secured a 3-1 away win against Eupen in their latest league match, Genk will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. During that encounter they had 54% possession and had 18 attempts on goal with 10 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 11 shots on goal.
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 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Cegeka Arena.
They have been performing well at Cegeka Arena recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Genk, Daniel Muñoz will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Kortrijk, Recent FormThe 2-1 home defeat to Westerlo will not have sat easily with the Kortrijk squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They came away from that fixture with a 49% share of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Westerlo, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Glen De Boeck will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 3 goals, conceded 13, and picked up a meagre 2 points. So far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 16 of their 17 games.
An away win for Kortrijk is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 12 games.
A defeat for Kortrijk in their last match against Genk was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
The De Kerels defence has struggled at Cegeka Arena, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 14 visits.
Genk has had a good run of league results at home to Kortrijk, winning their last 4 meetings and being unbeaten in their last 5.
There is only really one injury concern for the Genk manager Wouter Vrancken ahead of this clash, with Tolu Arokodare (Knock) missing out, which gives Vrancken a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Glen De Boeck has a number of injury concerns in his Kortrijk squad to contend with: Ryan Alebiosu (Unknown), Thierry Ambrose (Achilles tendon) and Youssef Challouk (Knee)
