We predict Gent to beat Westerlo 2-1 in the Conference League play-off and this is why. Westerlo are in poor form, having won just one of their last four games unlike Gent, who have won three of their opening four play-off matches including a 3-1 over Westerlo in the reverse fixture in April.
For Westerlo vs Gent prediction, we say both teams will score and over 2.5 goals and this is why. Westerlo failed to keep a clean sheet in their last four matches and three of those finished with over 2.5 goals. The same for Gent, and for this reason, I have backed both teams and total goals over 2.5.
Westerlo have lost two of their opening four Conference League play-off matches and are eight points off the top position. They are struggling to maintain consistency and facing in-form Gent, who won them in the first leg 3-1, isn’t what to be happy about but they ended their horrid start with a comfortable 3-0 win over Standard Liege.
Gent started the Conference League play-off on the front foot, having won three of their opening four matches. They started the competition with a 3-1 win over Westerlo at home and will look to do the double this weekend, although Westerlo won their last game 3-0 against Liege.
