Best Tip: Genk to win

We are predicting Genk will be victorious come the end of the 90 minutes on Saturday in the win / draw / win market. The recent form stats and historical head-to-head (H2H) records below all point in that direction and, as favourites with the bookmakers, the odds back that up too. There could be wild scenes among the home fans when that final whistle blows at Cristal Arena.
