Third meets last in the Belgian Pro League on Sunday 8 November, when Gent welcome KV Kortrijk to the Planet Group Arena for a 3pm UK kick-off. Gent have lost once in the league all season. Kortrijk have won once in ten and scored four goals, the fewest anywhere in the division. Our model has Gent winning 2-0.
Gent sit 3rd in the table on 25 points from 10 games, with eight wins, a draw and a defeat. They have conceded six, the fewest in the league, and kept a clean sheet in half their matches, the highest rate going. They also score 1.9 a game, the 5th most.
Gent have not won either of their last two. A 4-0 win over Anderlecht on 25 October was followed by a 2-0 defeat at Lommel SK, and on Thursday they drew 0-0 away at KuPS in the Europa Conference League, three days before this game. Before the Anderlecht win they lost 2-0 at Braga in the same competition.
Kortrijk are 18th on 4 points, with one win, one draw and eight defeats, 4 goals scored and 22 conceded. That win was a 1-0 over SK Beveren on 20 September, and they have taken one point from the three league games since. On Wednesday they went down 3-1 at home to Mechelen, four days after a 1-1 draw at Standard. They manage 0.4 goals a game and 3 shots on target, the 2nd fewest, while conceding 2.2.
Kortrijk also average the most cards in the league, 2.7 a game, and commit 13 fouls a game, the 3rd most. Gent's shots on target average of 5.2 is the 6th most in the league.
