Genk vs Eupen Prediction: Genk to continue their fine form

After suffering a defeat at the hands of Club Brugge on matchday one, Genk quickly got back on track by claiming a 3-1 victory over Standard Liege. Dessers started the game as one of the most important players once again. While this was going on, Eupen was getting off to a rough start in the league, but they could turn things around and beat Club Brugge by a score of 2-1.

When they face off against Eupen in the third round of the Jupiler League, Genk will look to build on their victory over Standard Liege, which they earned 3-1. After defeating Club Brugge by a score of 3-2, Genk quickly got back on their feet and regained their confidence, but they do not intend to rest on their laurels now. Summer signing Cyriel Dessers has already begun to produce positive results. We anticipate that the Nigerian forward, who scored twice over the past weekend, will make life difficult for the opposing team's defense. When Genk takes the field on Saturday, Wouter Vrancken's side will not have Adnane Abid, Paul Onuachu, Luca Oyen, and Mujaid Sadick from Spain available to play.

On Matchday 2, Eupen surprised everyone by beating the defending champions, Club Brugge, and moving up to 10th place in the standings. But the Pandas don't have the skills to be good travelers, so we don't think they will be able to ruin Genk's party at Cegeka Arena. But because of how well they played against a very good Brugge team, you can't completely count them out because they will want to prove something at the Cegeka Arena. The only player on the other team who won't be there is Gary Magnee, serving the first game of a two-game suspension.

In the past three seasons, Eupen has only been able to beat Genk once. Genk has also been a very good team since the start of the 2022–2023 season. In their first game, against Brugge, they lost 3-2 in a very close game. They will win this match, no question about it. Also, they have won their last four games against Eupen by at least two goals each time.
