Gent vs Charleroi Prediction & Betting Tips

Gent vs Charleroi Preview

Gent returned to winning ways in their recent fixture as they recorded an applaudable 4-2 victory over Cercle Brugge. The hosts started the game on a backfoot but crawled back from behind to record their third win in four matches. Regardless of the performance, Gent’s defensive vulnerabilities were exposed once more as they commited another error leading to a goal.

Gent’s performance at the Planet Group Arena is mixed with two wins, a draw, and a defeat in four matches. Making their home a fortress will do their season a lot of good on the long run and that starts with this weekend’s fixture against Charleroi. Gent are fifth on the league table with fourteen points from nine matches.

Meanwhile, Charleroi recorded back-to-back defeats for the first time this season last weekend, when they lost 2-0 to Mechelen. The visitors enjoyed the lion’s share of the ball possession but failed to create clear cut chances throughout the encounter. Of their thirteen total attempts in the match, Charleroi had six shots on target, and all six were saved by Mechelen’s goalkeeper Nacho Miras.

Rik Demil’s team will look to halt this unpleasant run of results when they return to action this weekend. Charleroi’s won their last two matches on the road and we expect them to be inspired by that. They are seated in eighth position on the league table with 12 points, two points and three spots behind the hosts.

Gent vs Charleroi Prediction

We back Michal Skoras to score anytime for the hosts because the forward has been an influential figure in Gent’s attacking third this season.With two goals and two assists in his last four games, we expect him score in this game.

We also anticipate over 2.5 goals because both teams’ recent games produced high-scoring results. According the numbers, Gent’s last five matches averaged 3 goals per game and Charleroi’s matches within the same period averaged the same number of goals.

Lastly, we expect both teams to get on the scoresheet because this outcome was noticed in five of Gent’s last seven matches, and in four of Charleroi’s last six matches. This indicates a highly probable outcome.
