Genk to win
First of all, we would like to mention that Genk have had Charleroi’s number in the past; they lost just once in their last six meetings with Charleroi, with four wins and a draw. Furthermore, Genk have enjoyed relatively better form than Charleroi in recent weeks; they have been unstoppable lately, with four wins and a draw in their last five games. On the other hand, we have a Charleroi side that won just one of their last five games; they have no wins in their last three games, with a draw and two losses. Considering both teams’ form, Genk should win this match.
Both sides to score
These sides met just a few days ago, and both teams scored two goals each in that game. As a matter of fact, meetings between these teams tend to feature goals at both ends; both teams scored in 11 of the last 13 clashes between Genk and Charleroi. In the same vein, we would like to point out that both teams have scored a lot of goals recently; Genk found the net in all of their last six games, with 15 goals scored in that stretch. Like Genk, Charleroi have not had much trouble finding the net; as they bagged 13 goals in their last seven games. Both teams should score.
Expect a few goals
We’ve already established that these teams have been consistent when it comes to scoring goals; as a result, their games tend to be on the high-scoring side. Six of Charleroi’s last seven games went above the 2.5 goal mark, with five of those games going over 3.5. Similarly, Genk have had their fair share of high-scoring games; as four of their last six games went over 3.5. Furthermore, four of the last five encounters between these two saw at least three goals scored; with this in mind, this will likely be a high-scoring game.
