Gent vs TSC Prediction & Betting Tips (12 December)

La Gantoise today occupies 18th place in this Conference League with 3 points behind the 8th, last qualified directly for the round of 16, and 2 ahead of the 25th, not qualified for the play-offs. Little to their advantage on the road, Wouter Vrancken's men lost on the lawns of Chelsea 4-2 and Lugano 2-0 . On the other hand, they remained uncompromising at home with successes against Molde 2-1 and Omonia Nicosia 1-0. In the championship, the Belgians are already out of the title race. On the tough side, they only pocketed one victory in 7 matches before hosting Sint-Truiden last weekend. 21st in this Conference League with the same number of points as 25th, TSC will have to work hard to reach the play-offs.

It all started badly with two losses suffered against Astana 1-0 and Legia Warsaw 0-3. During the last two days, the club based in Backa Topola revived by dominating Lugano 4-1 before drawing at St. Gallen two weeks ago 2-2. On the national scene, the Serbs are vegetating in the soft underbelly of the ranking and will have to work hard to reach the playoffs. Logically beaten at the undisputed leader, Red Star Belgrade 3-1, they traveled to the field of poorly ranked Subotica last weekend.

Victim of heart problems, the starting defender Fadiga must still withdraw this week. Gantoise must also do without substitutes Fortuna (defender) and Vancsa (attacker) as well as long-term missing midfielder Omgba, on the flank. Arriving from Milton Keynes this summer, young English striker Dean (5 goals in the league) is in good shape but he started on the bench during the four Conference League matches. Israeli midfielder Gandelman (4 goals in the league, 2 goals in C4) is an important element of La Gantoise. On the TSC side, replacement defender Vlalukin is missing, injured.

On the other hand, midfielder Kuveljic, absent for many weeks, has returned to the field while midfield captain Radin has finished serving his suspension. Author of a double during the last Conference League match, striker Pantovic (4 goals and 2 assists in the league) scored his 3rd and 4th goals in this C4. He should be started this week just like the important midfielders Stanic (4 goals and 3 assists in the league, 2 goals in C4) and Djakovac (6 goals and 5 assists in the league).
