Lommel United host Gent on 1 November 2026 at 20:30 in a Jupiler Pro League clash where the visitors arrive as clear favourites. Gent thrashed Anderlecht 4-0 in their last outing and sit top of the standings, while Lommel drew 2-2 with Leuven but remain vulnerable at home. The hosts have scored just 1.00 goal per game in their last ten matches and failed to find the net in 75% of recent home fixtures. Lommel's defence also leaked 3.51 expected goals against Leuven. Injuries to Banguera Riascos, Seuntjens and Wouters further weaken the home side. Gent have conceded only four goals all season and allowed just 0.80 goals per game across their last ten matches. Manager Rik De Mil is unlikely to rotate his winning lineup.
Form and H2H
Lommel's last ten games show four wins, two draws and four losses, averaging 1.30 goals for and 1.41 against. Gent's away form is far superior: seven wins, two draws and one loss, scoring 1.90 goals per game while conceding 0.80. The teams met on 1 December 2021 when Gent won 2-0 at Lommel. Gent's defensive solidity this season stands out sharply against Lommel's home struggles, creating a significant gap in quality between the sides.
Best Bet
Gent to Win is the primary selection. The visitors' attacking form, defensive discipline and Lommel's inability to score at home make this a straightforward away win. Gent have won seven of their last ten away matches and face an opponent averaging just 1.00 goal per game at Soevereinstadion.
Odds to Watch
The correct score prediction is Lommel United 0-1 Gent. Under 2.5 goals offers value given Gent's defensive record and Lommel's blunt attack. Both Teams to Score No reflects Lommel's poor home output and Gent's miserly defence. A clean sheet for Gent aligns with their season-long pattern of restricting opponents to minimal chances.
