Jupiler Pro League leaders Genk will be confident of picking up another win when Charleroi visit the Cegeka Arena on Saturday.
While that match is set to attract plenty of attention, Sunday’s showdown between Anderlecht and Gent is arguably the standout fixture of Matchday 15.
Not surprisingly, those games feature in an acca that could return a tidy sum from a small stake with an 8% boost.
Our expert tipster has also picked a match result that is likely to leave you scratching your head if you tend to rely on the league table when predicting outcomes.

Royal Antwerp to beat Dender – 1.46
Antwerp will be confident of securing a comfortable win against Dender on Friday night. Jonas De Roeck’s side enjoyed an impressive run of results before losing to Genk at the start of the month. After picking up five wins and two draws, they were beaten 2-0 at the Cegeka Arena but bounced with a 2-1 victory at Kortrijk. Dender have won just one of their last five league games and the chances of an upset appear slim.
Standard Liege to beat Cercle Brugge – 2.46
Standard Liege will bank on home advantage making the difference when they host lowly Cercle Brugge. Ivan Leko’s side have lost three of their last five league outings but should still be good enough to see off the visitors, who have already been beaten seven times this season. Cercle Brugge are only three points worse off than their opponents. But a 5-0 home thrashing at the hands of Anderlecht last time out will have crushed any confidence built up from back-to-back Pro League wins over Union Saint-Gilloise and Charleroi.
Genk to beat Charleroi – 1.50
With a five-point cushion at the top of the table heading into Matchday 15, Genk are overwhelming favourites to see off Charleroi. The hosts have won 10 of 14 league games, scoring 28 goals and conceding 19 along the way. In contrast, Charleroi have lost four of their last five matches. Although they will take heart from a 1-0 win over Westerlo last time out, along with Genk’s 4-0 humbling at Union Saint-Gilloise, the visitors are likely to be in for a difficult evening on Saturday.
Anderlecht to beat Gent – 1.82
Since successive league defeats to Beerschot and Club Brugge, Anderlecht have beaten Kortrijk and Cercle Brugge without conceding. Gent’s fortunes have also improved in the wake of a 2-0 home defeat to Genk, with Wouter Vrancken’s side hammering Rochefort 7-0 in the Belgian Cup before picking up a point at Beerschot. A 1-0 win over Omonia Nicosia followed in the Europa Conference League and they battered Standard Liege 5-0 in their last Pro League outing. But when all is said and done, Anderlecht boss David Hubert will be confident of making it three league wins on the spin.
Kortijk to beat Westerlo – 4.50
In some respects, backing lowly Kortrijk to win on their travels may seem a little crazy. Freyr Alexandersson’s side have lost eight times already this season but they are only four points worse off than Westerlo. The hosts have lost three of their last five league games and were left looking nervously towards the bottom of the table after a 1-0 defeat at Charleroi prior to the international break.
