The 6th match day in Play-off 1 of the Jupiler Pro League. Genk is still in the lead and has 44 points while Ghent is 6th with 26 points. Standard is 3rd in the ranking with 36 points and Club Brugge is the first pursuer with 38 points.

The quotations from Genk - Gent are clearly in Genk's favor.

Choose a surprise from Ghent

Ghent has completely missed its start in Play-off 1 and lost the first four games. Also on the field of Anderlecht there was never a victory in the previous match day and all analysts agree that this was the worst game in Play-off 1.

The Gentenaars only took 1 in 15 and so there is nothing left to pick up in the play-offs. Ghent is still playing the cup final against KV Mechelen and in this way hopes to force European football. Grabbing a spot at home against leader Genk would give Jess Thorup's troops a boost in confidence.

Bet on Genk, the favorite

Genk started the play-offs excellently and the team from Limburg took a nice 12 out of 15. The only time that was lost was on the Antwerp field (1-0). The Smurfs showed the general public that they can also play a match without Alejandro Pozuelo.

The last competition match was convincingly won on the field of direct competitor Standard and Genk has thus further strengthened its title ambitions. The troops of Phillip Clement want to book a new victory by also taking the three points on the field of Ghent.
