Best Tip: Genk to win

A Pro League win on home turf for Thorsten Fink's Genk side win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Stats suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should be too strong for the opposition. The odds from the bookies suggest so too, and when that happens you've got a pretty compelling case. A Genk win is our recommendation, but it could be a close one.
