Editor's Prediction
Given the current form of both teams and their tournament ambitions, Genk are expected to dominate the match proceedings. Although Antwerp will aim to fortify their defense and play a counter-attacking game, their inconsistency is too apparent to ignore. We don't foresee a high-scoring affair. It's quite likely that the trend of low scoring from the visitors will continue, making a bet on total goals under 3.5 the most reasonable choice, based on the clubs' past game statistics.
