Jupiler Pro League 2022: Gent vs St. Liege Preview and Odds
There’s no easing back into the Jupiler Pro League 2022 campaign. Gent and St. Liege will go head-to-head in a crucial first game back as the battle for a top four spot intensifies. Gent are currently three points adrift of champions Club Brugge in fourth, whilst St. Liege are eight points off the Championship Group places.
These two sides were in contrasting form prior to the international break, but form has largely gone out the window due to the month-long pause in Jupiler Pro League 2022 football. That being said, most will fancy Gent as favourites to continue their pursuit of more European football.
The hosts have won four consecutive home games, scoring 11 and conceding just once. This impressive run includes a comfortable 2-0 win over Club Brugge. Hugo Cuypers is having a superb season since joining from KV Mechelen, scoring nine and assisting two in 16 Jupiler Pro League 2022 appearances. He will be crucial in firing Gent back into form over Christmas and the New Year.
As a result of their strong form at the Ghelamco Arena, Gent are 1.73 favourites heading into the tie. Liege have not travelled badly at all this season, but find themselves 4.50 underdogs with the bookies. Both teams to score is seen as likely at 1.71, with either to keep a clean sheet enough to double your stake at 2.06.
Gent vs St. Liege Football Betting Tips
Gent win to nil – 2.99
Before the World Cup, Gent had won four straight games, keeping clean sheets in all four. When you also factor in their home record, they should be expected to get back to winning ways in the Jupiler Pro League 2022 season. It might take a while for them to get going, but we’re not sure St. Liege will have enough to get a result.
Over 1.5 Gent goals – 1.76
This looks a good option to boost your combo bet. This bet has landed in eight of Gent’s last 11 matches in all competitions. The visitors have not been the best defensively this season, and will do well to take anything from this game. They don’t look solid enough to earn a clean sheet, or have enough penetration to score at the other end.
