Double chance : draw or Gent

Zulte Waregem come into this one after a rough loss, but they had won two games just before that. They are up and down at the moment. Gent are also struggling a bit — they lost their last match and have only one win in their recent games, with a draw and a few defeats mixed in. So neither team is in great form, and both have been beaten often lately.

When these two have met recently, Gent have usually come out on top, and some of those games had a fair number of goals. At home, Zulte Waregem can be decent, but Gent look the stronger side overall. The match looks fairly close on paper, but Gent seem more likely to get the result. Given how both teams have been playing, this could easily end in a draw, but Gent have the edge to win.
