Match Preview
Zulte-Waregem will host Gent at the Elindus Arena on Friday, 17 October, in what promises to be an intriguing Pro League clash. Zulte-Waregem's recent form shows a struggle, with only one win in their last five matches (LWLDD), while Gent comes into this fixture with a more positive outlook, having secured three wins in their last five outings (DLWLW). Historically, this matchup has leaned in Gent's favour, with the visitors winning five of the last ten encounters, suggesting they may hold the psychological edge.
A key angle to consider is the goal-scoring potential of both teams. Seven of their last ten meetings have seen over 2.5 goals, and with both sides displaying vulnerabilities in defence, particularly Zulte-Waregem, who have conceded in four of their last five matches, this trend could very well continue. Expect an open game where both teams will look to exploit defensive lapses, making the prospect of goals likely.
