Mechelen vs Genk Prediction & Betting Tips - Jupiler Pro League
by Devesh Jaganath in Jupiler Pro League Predictions
Mechelen will welcome Genk to the AFAS-stadion Achter de Kazerne on Friday night for a Jupiler Pro League clash of huge significance. The hosts are currently in 13th place in the league with 26 points in 24 matches, nine points behind the playoff spots, and five clear of the drop zone. In their last match, Mechelen lost 2-1 to AS Eupen, which was their third loss in their last three matches, along with two wins and a draw. Their home form has been good this season, recording six wins, four draws, and three losses in 13 matches. Mechelen has been unable to beat Genk in their last eight attempts and will likely find it difficult to take anything from this match as well.
Genk saw their excellent recent run of six matches without defeat brought to an end by an excellent display from Antwerp in their last match, which ended in a 1-0 defeat. Despite the loss, Genk is still in first place in the league with 62 points in 25 matches, just six points ahead of a Union Saint-Gilloise team that seems determined to reel them in moving into the final stretch of the season. Over their last six games, Genk has won four, drawn one, and lost one, while their away record this season reads as nine wins, one draw, and just two losses in 12 matches. Genk is unbeaten in their last three away matches and will fancy themselves to extend that record with another win in this one.

Our Mechelen vs Genk Prediction
Genk will want to bounce back immediately from their loss last weekend and maintain their slender lead over Union Saint-Gilloise, who are in excellent form recently. However, Mechelen has been scoring freely at home in recent weeks and will believe they can cause a few problems for Genk’s defense which has shipped its fair share this season. Genk should get the win, but we expect a few goals too. Our Mechelen v Genk prediction is a win for the visitors and over 2.5 goals.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
