Genk vs Kortrijk Lineups, Team News, and Match Preview

Genk

Even though they are undefeated in the last seven home matches during the league season, Genk has only won two of those matches and is in the bottom half of the table when it comes to the games won while playing in front of their fans. On Thursday, Genk ended its European campaign despite defeating Cukaricki in the Conference League. Aziz Ouattara is sidelined.

Predicted lineup: Vandevoordt, Arteaga, Sadick, McKenzie, Munoz, Hrosovsky, Heynen, Sor, El Khannouss, Paintsil, Fadera.

Kortrijk

When you are a team without an away victory and at the same time, the worst team in the league looking at the overall record, there isn't much to look forward to if you are a Kortrijk supporter. Ryan Alebiosu, Thierry Ambrose, and Youssef Challouk have health issues and are likely to miss the game.

Predicted lineup: Vandenberghe, Antunes Silva, Radovanovic, Kana, De Neven, Mehssatou Sepulveda, Sissako, Kadri, Ojo, Henen, Davies.

Player to Watch: Bryan Heynen

The 26-year-old central midfielder has been a key member of the Genk team this season and one of the best scorers at the same time. He has recorded four goals and added three assists to his record while participating in 14 league matches this campaign.

Heynen is a Genk academy graduate, he has spent his entire career at the club ever since joining the youth squad ten years ago. Heynen became a full-time member of the senior team in 2015 and since then accumulated 282 appearances while scoring 32 goals and delivering 31 assists.
