"Since Peter Maes took charge at the start of last season, 16/26 Genk home games have delivered Over 2.5 Goals"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.758/11 in Genk v KV Kortrijk

After a successful start to the week in Greece yesterday, Tobias Gourlay's ready to pop the cork in Belgium this evening

We made a winning start to the week as PAOK shut down local rivals PAS Giannina to win the Ioannina derby 1-0.

Tuesday takes us to Belgium, where we've got much bigger expectations about Genk's Jupiler League game with KV Kortrijk.

Over the last 12 months, Genk have scored at least twice in 12/17 league appearances at the Cristal Arena. Since Peter Maes took charge at the start of last season, 16/26 have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total and that's our fancy for this evening.

Bart Van Lancker has been in charge of KV Kortrijk for a much shorter period, but is already showing similar tendencies. Six of the Guys' eight away games have served up Over 2.5 Goals. The visitors have scored themselves in 7/8 and we fancy them to help get this one over the line too.
