Gent vs Partizan Prediction & Betting Tips (28 August)

Winner of the Conference League play-offs last year in the Belgian championship, a place which allows him to compete in the play-offs for the next Europa Conference League, this one in this case, La Gantoise has 1 foot and 3 toes at next round. Her journey began in the 2nd round with a success against Vikingur 4-1/0-3, and a victory a few weeks later against Silkeborg 2-2/3-2. Expected to suffer in the hot atmosphere of Partizan, La Gantoise did the job by winning with a score of 1 goal to 0. Delicate start to the championship for La Gantoise on the other hand 11th, victorious against Westerlo 4-1 on the weekend last last. Opposite, Partizan Belgrade's start to the season is bad.

2nd in the Serbian championship with 10 points in 4 matches, Partizan on the other hand has only lost since arriving for the preliminary rounds in Europe. A rare team in this situation, it played the 3 European competitions in the space of 1 month. The 2nd round of the Champions League during which they lost to Dynamo kyiv 6-2/0-3, then the 3rd round of the Europa League against Lugano 0-1/2-2 and finally a defeat against Ghent at home 0-1. 

The entire squad should be in Serbia this evening except for two important Asian players from La Gantoise. Japanese defender Watanabe is out, and the important Hyun-Seok Hong (5 goals, 5 assists in the league last season) is expected to leave. In order to compensate for the departure of Tarek Tissoudali (15 goals, 8 assists last year) to PAOK Salonika, La Gantoise put their heart into the work to achieve a very good transfer window. Between the arrivals of Delorge (Westerlo), Varela (Portimonense), Gudjohnsen (Lingby BK), Max Dean (MK Dons) and Atsuki Ito (Urawa) the club spent around 15 million euros. Fernandez-Pardo (8 goals in the Jupiler League last year), league scorer, and Samoise (6 goals last year) will be there. Author of 3 goals in the league and top scorer of the club, Partizan has not aligned Jovanovic in the first leg against La Gantoise. Best passer (3 assists) and captain of the group, Natcho did not play the first leg either.

Would Partizan give up on C4? Probably yes. Absent since the beginning of July, Zivkovic will be missing again this evening. Former Sochaux striker Kalulu, who arrived at the club two years ago, is also out. These are ultimately, a priori, the only major absences to be notified. Rookies Kovac (1 goal, 1 assist in the league this season) and Brazilian striker Saldanha (17 pawns, 4 goals last year) will be looking for playing time in such arrangements.
