Rijeka - Gent Prediction, Picks and Tips
Rijeka comes to this match after a 2-1 loss to Gent, however, his goal as a visitor allows him to dream of the group stage of the Europa League: Halilovic scored the only goal of the team. In this second match, coach Igor Biscan must present a more cautious strategy, seeking counterattacks to create danger. Zoran Kvrzic and Halilovic are some of Rijeka's best players this season. For this game, the house coach can count on all his players.
Gent comes to this motivated match, after a 2-1 victory in the first match against Rijeka, in a match in which Depoitre scored both goals. Despite playing away from home, coach Jess Thorup should keep his tactical system at 4-4-2, favoring a more dominant style of play, especially in the first half. Yaremchuk and Depoitre are the most prominent Gent players this year: both are very powerful and strong in the finalization. For this match, the coach cannot count on the injured Chakvetadze.
An interesting point for this game will be to understand how Rijeka will react to the drawback disadvantage. Despite this, we hope that the best goal opportunities are for the home team, as it acts with the support of their fans and needs to win the match. On the other hand, the Gent must create difficulties for the locals at the start of the game, especially through counterattacks. Therefore, we expect a very open game with several scoring opportunities, so betting in favor of goals is the best option.
