Saturday, Genk faces Louvain for a match of the 2nd day of the Belgian championship. Genk will want to continue after his first success while Louvain will try to win a first.
Belgian champion in 2019, Genk missed himself last season and the club was unable to retain their title last year. Indeed, the Koninklijke finally took only 7th place in the championship and could not even get a place in the European Cup. Victorious over Union Saint-Gilloise (3-1), Excelsior (4-1), and AZ Alkmaar (0-1) this summer, Hannes Wolf’s men punctuated their preparation with a defeat suffered in Lens (2-3). However, they got off to a good start with a success against Zulte Waregam (1-2) on Sunday.
Last season, Louvain had an excellent season at the 2nd national level. Very solid, the Allies finished at the top of their group but lost in the final of the play-offs against Beershot (1-4). This summer, the promoted have gained confidence by winning in front of Zulte Waregem (2-0) and against Mechelen (3-0) in two friendlies. Monday, they started their season with a draw against Eupen (1-1).
For Genk, important midfielder Heynen, starting striker Bongonda, and substitute midfielder Thostvedt are in the infirmary. Offensively, the striker Onuachu (9 goals last year) remained at the club, unlike the important Didillon, Takidine, and Coucke. On the other hand, the top scorer in the Dutch league last season, Cyriel Dessers (15 goals), has arrived. He immediately stood out by scoring in his first game.
Leuven will move without the French Kehli and without the starting winger Aguemon who is unfit. Very prolific, the French Thomas Henry scored 15 goals while the Belgian Maertens scored 8. They should be associated with the tip of the visitors’ attack.
Coaches have the possibility of making 5 substitutions during the game.
This meeting will take place behind closed doors.
Confident after his first success, Genk could succeed in chaining against Louvain. Victory Genk!
