- 64' KAS Eupen are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against KRC Genk's shape.
- 69' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Angelo Preciado made 15 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 71' Ike Ugbo has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 71 minutes.
- 71' A change in the KAS Eupen ranks — Boris Lambert exits the field as Benoit Poulain enters on 71.

- 82' The travelling KRC Genk supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 83' Fresh legs for KAS Eupen! Sibiry Keita comes on to replace Konan N'Dri.
- 86' Magnificent from Smail Prevljak! That is 40 goals in 222 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- With this win, KAS Eupen is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
