Kortrijk vs Genk Prediction: Genk are expected to win each half of this game

At Guldensporen Stadion, Kortrijk will play host to Genk in round 10 of the Jupiler Pro League. Heading into this game, the home team comes in as the underdog, while the home team is the favorite. How will this game unfold? 

Kortrijk's winless run continued the previous weekend against Union Saint-Gilloise, and they will look to turn the tables here. In that game, Kortrijk had 48 percent of the possession and attempted four shots, failing to convert the two on target. In the meantime, this team heads into this game with zero wins in their last four matches, losing two and drawing two. This season, Kortrijk have 8 points from their first nine matches, leaving them seated 16th in the standings. 

Genk are coming off a league win over KV Mechelen and will look to keep things running here. In a game that ended 2-1, Genk had to come from behind to secure maximum points, thanks to late goals from Hyon-Gyu Oh. However, with that win, Genk have now secured eight consecutive wins this season and are currently seated at the top of the standings. In 9 matches, the visiting team scored 20 goals while conceding 11. 

Kortrijk have not been a threat to any opponent so far this season, and with Genk playing their finest football right now, I do not see them being denied maximum points in this fixture. While the away team is heavily favored in this game, they are also coming off a number of consecutive wins, which should be a boost for them here. Expect this game to be one-sided, and a win for the road team in each half looks very sure.
