Genk must not have problems with Mechelen, a team that has just promoted. On Saturday, July 20, 2019, in Genk, on Luminus Arena, the local band met KV Mechelen in the Super Cup of Belgium.

Felked by Felice Mazzu, Genk succeeded in the last edition of the championship to show its supremacy again and to overtake Club Brugge & Anderlecht. 52 points were enough to win the champion for the fourth time in history. Moreover, he was put on transfers, recently brought Ianis Hagi, for an amount that, with bonuses, could reach 10 million.

KV Mechelen: Form of the moment, latest results, statistics

The surprise of the 2018/2019 season, KV Mechelen managed to get into this situation after winning the Belgian Cup. She succeeded in doing so as a participant in the Proximus League, the second Belgian echelon. Of course, it was not a platoon team, proof that he finished first and won the promotion play-off. The situation is a bit more complicated as far as it is concerned, given that it has recently been charged with the counter and could withdraw its participation in European Cups. At least that was decided yesterday (17 July 2019) by the Belgian Arbitration Court for Sport.

Genk vs KV Mechelen Picks

It is a very delicate situation for Mechelen, the team that can breathe easily that it has been accepted to play in the first league. The corruption and financial problems he has had, have pulled the band down a lot. Thus, given the status of the host team, I expect to see a bigger determination from KRC Genk, who has scored at least twice.
