After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with Zorya in their opener, Gent will look to overtake Maccabi Tel Aviv in top position in Group B when the two teams face each other at KAA Gent Arena on Thursday.
Gent failed to impress in a 1-1 draw with RWDM at the weekend, but the bookies still see them as favourites to win the Conference League clash.
Pieter Gerkens limped off with injury in the last league match, with Andrew Hjulsager likely to step up.
The Israelis, on the other hand, recorded a hard-fought 3-2 win over Breidablik in their opener, but they will have a mountain to climb against Gent, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home.
A man to keep an eye on in the visiting team will be former PSV striker Eran Zahavi, who found the net in a 2-0 win over Haopel Petah Tikva at the weekend, while Or Yitzhak remains on the sidelines with injury.
This match will be played on 05/10/2023 at 17:45
Prediction: 3-1
Recommended Pick: Gent to Win.
