KRC Genk vs Adana Demirspor Prediction and Betting Tips
KRC Genk and Adana Demirspor lock horns at the Cegeka Arena in the first leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League playoff round on Thursday (August 24).
Wouter Vrancken’s men were held to a goalless draw against Sporting Charleroi in the Jupiler League on Sunday. They have won only one of their last six games across competitions, losing three, in August.
Having crashed out of the Europa League qualifiers against Olympiacos, Genk will look to place one foot in the group stage of the Conference League and all but secure European football.
Meanwhile, Demirspor’s unbeaten streak in the Conference League qualifiers came to an end on Thursday with a 3-2 second-leg loss against Osijek. However, a 5-1 first-leg win was enough to see Patrick Kluivert’e men through to the qualifying playoffs round as they saw off Croatian side 7-4 on aggregate.
Demirspor head into the clash without a win in two games, including a 1-1 draw against Ankaragucu on Monday.

KRC Genk vs Adana Demirspor Prediction
