Goal Statistics

Goals have been difficult to come by for KRC Genk of late. It has been 5 Pro League matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.4 suggests they'll have problems ending that run on Sunday evening against Club Brugge.

Club Brugge's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday evening, not least because KRC Genk have conceded in each of their last 6 Pro League games. A PG of 1.6 for N. Hayen's side suggests that run should continue.
