St. Truiden vs Gent Prediction: Gent are the better side

Stayen will be the venue for the round 10 encounter of the Jupiler Pro League between St. Truiden and Gent. Heading into this game, the visiting team won the last match of this fixture. How will this encounter unfold?

St. Truiden are coming off a 1-1 draw with Cercle Brugge and will look to secure a win here. In that game, Ahoueke Steeve Kevin Denkey gave Cercle Brugge the lead, but an 89th-minute Andreas Ferrari strike was enough to secure a point for St. Truiden. In the meantime, the home team enter this game with an unbeaten run of six games, winning four and winning two. St. Truiden have accumulated 10 points this season from nine matches, positioning them 13th.  

Gent played Chelsea last time out in the UEFA Conference League, and they lost 4-2. In that game, Tsuyoshi Watanabe and Omri Gandelman scored for this side, with Dewsbury-Hall K, Christopher Nkunku, Pedro Neto, and Renato Veiga scoring for Chelsea. However, the visiting team's last league game was against Leuven, and they secured a 3-0 win. Heading into this game, Gent have 16 points from 9 matches, leaving them seated 3rd in the standings.

Gent have dominated this fixture, and I expect them to win this one, too. With the home team coming off an unbeaten run, they should have good momentum for winning. Yet, the home team has been very good this season, and compared to the home team's struggles, this game should end in the visitor’s favor. Also, with the two teams expected to show defensive play, a bet on a few goals is another good option.
