On Saturday, starting at 19:30, Genk – Mechelen, the 2019 edition of the Super Cup, will be played. Mechelen was a hard opponent for Genk lately, winning the last direct match, score 3-2 in 2017 (the fourth success of the past 5 years). Belgian champion has changed his coach this summer and it will be interesting how he will evolve with Felice Mazzu.
Philippe Clement, coach with which Genk won the title in Belgium, went to Club Brugge. In his place was Felice Mazzu, who spent six years on Charleroi’s bench without any notable performance. The Romanians will follow this duel with their mouths, as it may mean the official debut of Ianis Hagi in the Championship of Belgium.
Adversara Mechelen, the winner of the Cup last season, has advanced in the first division and can provide some surprises. A formation worth more than 100 million less than Genk, aims to evolve courageously, so we can see success on both sides.
PREDICTION: Genk to win @ 1,38
