- 0' The ball is rolling at Lotto Park. RSC Anderlecht are looking to make home advantage count against KRC Genk.
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KRC Genk that had 316 games and scored 528 goals.
- 15' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 25' Cyriel Dessers has been relatively quiet despite scoring 86 goals in his last 317 appearances.

- 55' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
