The season is still fairly new and the Pro League table has to be read with caution. So far Waasland-Beveren find themselves in 13th position and Genk are placed 9th.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
