The story

Antwerp Chase Perfect Start Against Resurgent Genk

Second-placed Antwerp look to maintain their 100% start to the season and keep pace with the league leaders, while Genk aim to break into the European spots with a statement away win.

Match news & current form

Antwerp have enjoyed a flawless opening to the Pro League campaign, sitting second with six points from two matches. Following a 2-1 home victory over SK Beveren and a convincing 3-0 away win at Kortrijk last week, the Great Old are chasing a third straight league win to remain firmly in the early title race.

Genk arrive in seventh place with three points, sitting just one point outside the European qualification places. While they secured a 3-2 victory over KVC Westerlo recently, a 2-1 defeat to Zulte Waregem has highlighted some early defensive vulnerabilities that they must address to compete at the top of the table.

Head-to-head history

The recent history between these two sides is closely contested, though Antwerp claimed a decisive 3-0 victory in their last encounter in December 2025. While Genk have historically been difficult to beat—losing only twice in a prior 10-match stretch against Antwerp—the momentum has shifted toward the hosts in the most recent fixtures.

Hot stats & streaks
  • Antwerp are looking to secure three consecutive league wins to start a season for the first time in recent years.
  • Genk have only suffered one defeat in their last several playoff-calibre matches, showing resilience in high-stakes fixtures.
  • Vincent Janssen is looking to end a goal drought, having failed to find the net in his last six league appearances.
  • The last meeting between these sides ended in a clean-sheet victory for Antwerp (3-0).
Key players & missing men

Antwerp captain Vincent Janssen remains the focal point of the attack alongside Gyrano Kerk, while Dennis Praet is expected to anchor the midfield with Xander Dierckx. Genk could hand debuts to new signings Jerry Afriyie and Kevin Amaro, who have both joined the squad recently. No major absences are reported for either side, though Rein van Gelden remains a doubt for the visitors.
