Waasland-Beveren - Genk Prediction, Picks and Taips
Waasland-Beveren receives Racing Genk for the first game of match day eight. Can the Lions roar again after six consecutive defeats? Or will the visitors take the first three points under their new coach?
Waasland-Beveren already won Cameroonian international Georges Mandjeck on Tuesday. It does not stop there in terms of incoming transfers, because reinforcement is more than welcome at the Freethiel. The next newcomer appears to be Michael Frey. It would be a tough shot to bring him in, because the striker has also enjoyed interest from top clubs Anderlecht, Club, Genk and Standard in recent years. Frey is owned by Fenerbahçe. The Turkish top club could agree with a rental agreement for one season.
It was a painful afternoon for Waasland-Beveren. After fifteen minutes they were 0-2 ahead on the field of Beerschot, but they gave up the game and in the end it even became a 3-2 defeat. Beveren then crawled back and only thought about defending. That hurt them towards the end of the game.
Daan Heymans is one of the bright spots this season at Waasland-Beveren. The midfielder has already scored six times. This weekend he took care of the 0-2 on the field of Beerschot, but it was not enough for a win or a draw. "We score two goals because we dare to play, but our coach said at half time that we are pulling back too quickly. I don't know if it will get through last year, but it absolutely has to get out. If you are 0-2 ahead, you have to play to win and not to lose, "said Daan Heymans.
On Saturday, Jess Thorup will be in the dug-out at his new club for the second time. During the transfer to Waasland-Beveren he again cannot call on his captain. On September 21, a corona test was taken by the players of Racing Genk and Danny Vukovic received a positive sample. The experienced goalkeeper therefore had to pass up the match against KV Oostende because he had to stay in quarantine. 35-year-old Vukovic again delivered a positive sample in the most recent test.
Racing Genk and KV Oostende shared the points in a very pleasant viewing piece. In a match that did not deserve a loser, it was once again Paul Onuachu who scored the Genk goals. After a Genk red card, it was Gueye who ensured a split with a striking header. In injury time, Cuesta was still very close to the winning goal for Racing Genk. His colliding header was cleverly saved by Hubert.
"The disappointment was enormous in the dressing room. Everyone wanted to go full for those six out of six. Toma's red card was the tipping point. We were looking for the 3-1, "Thorup said. "To be honest, I didn't think it was a red card, but I'm not a ref. Toma's second touch was not good, and he wanted to correct that by tapping the ball through the defender's legs. He had no intention of hitting that boy. We took control of the party all the way down to that red card. Then we tried as one team to get the three points, but unfortunately we didn't succeed. "
