Beerschot vs Genk Free Betting Tips
Does the newcomer convince again?
On the fifth day of play in the Jupiler League, promoted Beerschot takes on the dethroned champions from Genk. So far, the home side has not been unsettled by the increased demands and recorded three wins in a row at the start of the season. Last weekend, however, it was the first bankruptcy in the home game against Standard Liège.
Despite the clear result of 0: 3, the newcomer was on a par with the Walloon guests in terms of play – with the crucial exception of a large number of unused chances. For his part, Genk is having a hard time getting into the season and recently suffered a bankruptcy at the champion in Bruges. For Beerschot’s game against Genk, the tip includes a double chance in favor of the hosts.
Beerschot – Statistics & current form
The rise of the kickers from Antwerp is still a slight understatement: seven years ago the Flemings played fifth class, but since this season the team of coach Hernan Losado has been represented in the upper house.
On the other hand, at least the final upswing up to the top floor of Belgian football does not come as a complete surprise, since a Saudi prince has been a financially very potent partial owner for two years, who also calls Sheffield United his own. The start can be seen with nine points after four rounds as described.
Next goal by Holzhauser?
Above all, Raphael Holzhauser turns up the offensive. The Austrian has scored three goals so far and presented two to the Purple White Army. He was involved in all but one goal! Given his great form, Beerschot against Genk has the odds for his next goal celebration on top with value.
- “Coulibaly has a lot of potentials and I am convinced that he can strengthen our team in midfield.” – Technical manager Sander van Praet on the Coulibaly loan
The youngster previously worked for Sarpsborg in the Norwegian elite series and quite a few clubs in Europe had the Malian talent high on their wish lists.
Probable formation of Beerschot:
➠ Vanhamel – Bourdin – Frans – Prychynenko – Vorogovskiy – Sanusi – Holzhauser – Pietermaat – Dom – Tissoudali – Noubissi

Genk – Statistics & Current Form
After the championship season in the previous year, the KRC only finished seventh when it was abandoned prematurely. For the team of coach Hannes Wolf, it should go up again this year and at least participation in the final championship round is a minimum goal for the blue-whites.
Victory at the start of the season was deceptive
After the first win at Waregem, this venture seemed to be on the right track. But the victory was deceptive and disillusionment has long spread again in Genk. The four-time champion of the country could not record another victory in the last three-game rounds.
Admittedly, the tasks with Liège and the titleholder from Bruges were difficult, but if you want to play up again, opponents of this caliber must of course also be defeated. Instead, they achieved a goalless draw against the Walloons and a 2-1 defeat against FCB before the international break.
Genk has to bake smaller rolls
The fans of the Smurfs have to accept, for better or worse, that there isn’t much left of the former class of the team. Numerous players were already given up last year, which is why the place in midfield was quite logical from this perspective. The last name on a list as long as it was painful was Mbwana Samata on the attack.
The top scorer of 2018 is now playing at Aston Villa in the Premier League. However, the squad could be reinforced with Cyriel Dessers at least on the offensive before this season. The 25-year-old Belgian came from Heracles in the Dutch Eredivisie, where he secured the title of co-top scorer last season.
Probable formation of Genk:
➠ Vukovic – Maehle – Figueroa – Lucumi – Uronen – Munoz – Eboue Ito – Bongonda – Daehli – Dessers

Beerschot vs Genk Free Betting Tips
Exactly 100 years ago, the Belgian national team celebrated winning the Olympic Games at the venue in Antwerp – the only title to date in a major football tournament. For Beerschot, one of the oldest clubs in the country, another historic dream came true this summer. The recently still fifth class club has become a member of the Jupiler League.
The first rounds of the game have shown that the rise of the “Kielse Ratten” is okay from a sporting point of view: Three wins and one defeat give the Antwerp players a top spot in the table and even the champions from Bruges were defeated on the penultimate matchday. The situation with the guests is dreary.
Key facts – Beerschot vs Genk tips
? The duel takes place for the first time
? The home side started the season as promoted players
? Smurfs haven’t won in three rounds
Limburg recently had to bow to the champion and have been waiting for the next three since the opening success against Waregem. For the game between Beerschot and Genk, the tip aims to prevent the home side from fulfilling their wish for the second win of the season.
The formally strong newcomer is still euphoric about the promotion and can count on the support of his fans again in the coming match. At least in part, as a limited number of spectators have been allowed in Belgium since this week. The home advantage is again a little stronger.
