Genk vs Zulte-Waregem H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

Genk went head-to-head with Zulte-Waregem in the First Division A of Belgium on August 31. At full-time, Genk sealed a 3-2 victory over Zulte-Waregem.

The game shifted on the 2nd minute when Jeppe Erenbjerg converted the chance, giving Zulte-Waregem the lead. The scoreline was shaped by further goals from Mujaid Sadick, Robin Mirisola, Anton Tanghe and Zakaria El Ouahdi, bringing the match to a 3-2 conclusion.

2 years after their last face-off in a friendly, a sense of anticipation builds as Genk and Zulte-Waregem renew their battle. In their last match, neither side could break the deadlock, ending in a 3-3 draw. Following a recent loss to Lech on August 28, Genk aim to regroup and turn things around in this upcoming clash. Tightening up at the back might be their best chance to shift momentum, especially given the fact their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last five matches.

Zulte-Waregem are on a troubling run just like their oponents, heading into this match following two back-to-back defeats to Sint-Truiden and Club Brugge. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have been conceding goals for seven consecutive matches now.

Genk and Zulte-Waregem meet in Belgian Pro League with their goal-scorers and playmakers ready to take on pivotal roles. Jarne Steuckers and Zakaria El Ouahdi have been pivotal for Genk’s attack, shaped by Thorsten Fink’s vision, combining to deliver important goals and assists. El Ouahdi has already scored three goals in Belgian Pro League this season, with Steuckers leading their creative tally in the league with three assists. Oh Hyun-Gyu, Patrik Hrosovsky and Matte Smets have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.

Meanwhile, Zulte-Waregem’s top finisher Jeppe Erenbjerg and Jelle Vossen have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Sven Vandenbroeck, remains effective. Erenbjerg has emerged as Zulte-Waregem’s leading scorer in Belgian Pro League this season, netting two goals, while Opoku has been their leading creator in the competition with one assist. Adding further support are Tobias Hedl, Serxho Ujka and Yannick Cappelle, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.
