Genk vs Club Brugge Preview
Are a five-match winless run, Genk have finally found some form, winning back-to-back Jupiler Pro League matches for the first time in 2024. They now find themselves in sixth, level on points with both fifth-place Cercle Brugge and seventh-place Gent.
They risk slipping out of the Championship Playoff spots should they fail to win this weekend, with the stakes higher than ever heading into the final three matches of the campaign.
Club Brugge are also in a precarious spot. They are third on 45 points, just two points ahead of the Conference League Playoffs. Their defeat to Anderlecht means they are now 12 points adrift of second place and a huge 20 points behind league leaders Union Saint-Gilloise.
Their title hopes are now over but Club Brugge must continue to pick up points as they look to secure a spot in the Europa League.
