KAA Gent host OHL in the Jupiler League on Sunday

Gent welcome OHL to Planet Group Arena for a Jupiler Pro League matchday nine fixture on Sunday. The hosts will be looking to bounce back from the 2-1 defeat away to Cercle Brugge in midweek.

Ahoueke Denkey scored a late brace to put Cercle 2-0 up in injury time while Noah Fadiga pulled one back in the eighth minute of injury time.

Leuven, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw at home to Kortrijk. They went behind to Dion De Neve's 57th-minute strike, while Konan Ndri drew the game level just past the hour mark.

The draw left them in 11th spot in the table, having garnered 11 points from eight games. Gent are third with 13 points to their name.


Gent vs OHL Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

  • Gent have 13 wins from the last 22 head-to-head games. OHL were victorious on three occasions while six games ended in a share of the spoils.
  • Their most recent clash came in May 2024 when Leuven claimed a 1-0 away win.
  • Four of the last six head-to-head games have produced less than three goals.
  • Gent's loss to Cercle Brugge ended their seven-game unbeaten run across competitions (six wins).
  • Leuven have won just one of their last six league games (four draws).
  • Gent's last seven games across competitions have produced an average of 10 corner kicks per game.
  • Six of Leuven's last seven league games have seen both sides find the back of the net.

Gent vs OHL Prediction

Gent will be smarting from the defeat they suffered in midweek, having not lost any of their prior seven games across competitions. The Buffalos have a chance to go into second spot with a victory here and are the favorites to claim maximum points. However, they have lost the last two head-to-head games so will be wary of the threat posed by their visitors.

Leuven have lost just one of their eight league games this term but have shown a tendency to draw games. Oscar Garcia's side have drawn five games in the league.

We are backing the home side to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.

Prediction: Gent 2-1 OHL
