Football Bet of the Day: It could all go off at Le Cannonier

Gent will be made to suffer if they don't entertain the fans today

"7/10 Mouscron home games have produced three match goals or more"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.186/5 in Mouscron v Gent

The Buffalos might end up on the rampage in western Belgium this afternoon, warns Tobias Gourlay

Mouscron v Gent
Saturday 17:00

A goal at the start of the match (not good) and a goal right at the end (worrying), but nothing in the intervening 84 minutes. Den Bosch 1 Sparta Rotterdam 1 and the only winners are us.

It's just a short hop across the border today, but Belgium's a Low Country where we're hoping for high goals.

Seven of 11th-placed Mouscron's last 10 Jupiler League home matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals.

Since their promotion last summer our hosts today have scored in 9/11 at Stade Le Cannonier, but are now eight games without a clean sheet there.

This afternoon's visitors are fifth-placed Gent. The Buffalos have been involved in three goalless draws on the road this season, but that's just not how Mouscron roll.

When Gent have conceded at least once, 5/5 away matches have ended up Over 2.5 Goals. When they've scored at least once - which looks even more likely than a concession today - 5/7 have finished beyond the goals line.
