Genk vs Seraing – Best Betting Tips, Predictions, & Odds

Genk are coming into the game after a 3-2 success over Westerlo. Meanwhile, relegation-threatened Seraing remain at the bottom of the table after suffering back-to-back losses with the latest being a 1-0 defeat against Anderlecht.

Joseph Paintsil to Score Anytime

There have been a string of excellent performances from Joseph Paintsil in the last few weeks. Even though Paul Onuachu is the top scorer at the club with 14 goals from his 18 league appearances, his recent performances have been pretty disappointing in the matches against Zulte Waregem and Westerlo. Paintsil, on other hand, has provided a string of match-winning performances including in the recent match against Westerlo when he contributed a goal and two assists.

Total goals over 3.5

This prediction is dealing with a team which has scored the highest number of goals this season with Genk registering 52 goals in the 21 league matches. Even though Seraing are the bottom of the scoring charts with only 21 goals, they have been defensively a big nightmare with 40 goals conceded. This prediction expects more than 3.5 goals in the upcoming game.

Both teams to score – yes

This prediction would opt for a game with goals at both ends of the pitch even though the table leaders have one of the best defensive records in the league with 19 goals conceded in 21 games.

Anouar Ait El Hadj, Yira Collins Sor, and Mbwana Ally Samatta were the team’s latest reinforcements, two strikers, and an attacking midfielder.

Stuck to the bottom of the table with a five point deficit to Zulte Waregem, Seraing and fast running out of time. Sami Lahssaini is out of the game after accumulating yellow cards while Gérald Kilota, Marius, Timothy Galjé, and Abou Ba are missing due to injuries.

Seraing´s News:

Coach Jean-Sebastien Legros has not been able to get his team to react, and he will have to continue working with the same group of players, as the club was not reinforced in the winter transfer window. There are still a lot of games left to improve the way they play and to get the necessary results to get out of the bottom of the table, otherwise, their destiny will be relegation.
