AS Eupen form and stats

AS Eupen's struggle is real here at Stadion am Kehrweg with only 9 points collected from 10 Pro League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-0-7. When AS Eupen hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Gent, Antwerp, Club Brugge, Union Saint-Gilloise and Standard Liège), they have won 2 of 5 matches! AS Eupen are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stadion am Kehrweg, having lost their two previous games here.

Eupen lost their last game at Standard Liège (placed 6th) after a 1-3 scoreline. Paeshuyse was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.13 out of 10. The defender Paeshuyse won 5 of 5 duels.

Preceding that game was the away draw at OH Leuven that finished 1-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for AS Eupen as they have a new game in only three days, a Pro League match thankfully also at home. Westerlo are visiting.

Eupen are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 10 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the AS Eupen defense is not exactly impregnable. 18 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Genk form and stats

Genk's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Genk collect 24 points from their 10 away matches in the Pro League. 8 victories and 0 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). The fact that Genk have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.

Impressive finishing from Trésor, Onuachu (2) and Paintsil secured the home win 4-0 against RFC Seraing in their previous game. As mentioned above, Genk was the only team on the pitch versus RFC Seraing in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. Midfielder Trésor was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.44. Trésor scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Westerlo with the score of 3-2.

The schedule is very tough for Genk now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Pro League game at Gent is waiting in only four days.

Genk have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 23 goals from 10 away matches.
