Genk 1-2 Union SG
Genk 0-1 Charleroi
Anderlecht 1-1 Genk
Genk 3-2 Zulte Waregem
Genk 1-2 Lech Poznan (Europa League Qualifier)
Genk have also had a bad start, with only one win in their last five matches, even if the second leg against Poznan was purely academic following a big first leg win.

Football Park's Best Bet: Both teams to score @ 1.50 - Our team of in-house betting tipsters have predicted both teams to score in this fixture. Both sides' early troubles could mean this is an open affair with lots of chances and goals, justifying this selection.
Alternate Bet: Rangers to win @ 2.45 - Home advantage on a big European night to revive their season could see the Scots over the line in this one.
John Souttar (Rangers) The centre-back averages 5.2 ball recoveries and 4.2 clearances per game, and with a clean sheet this season, their troubles certainly don't rest on his shoulders.
Junya Ito (Genk) The Japanese winger is back at Genk after three years away in Ligue 1, and with good returns in his first spell, Ito will be eager to make a difference again on the European stage.
