We said: Gent 2-1 Westerlo

 Buoyed by their midweek victory over Silkeborg, Gent will return to league action with sky-high confidence as they look to snap their two-game losing run. While Westerlo are currently firing on all cylinders, their record against the Buffalos offers little optimism, and we see them struggling this weekend. Read more.
