Anorthosis vs Gent prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Europa Conference League 2021-22

Anorthosis host Gent at GSP Stadium in their upcoming UEFA Europa Conference League fixture on Thursday.

The hosts are winless after four games in the group stage and are out of contention for direct qualification into the knockout stage.

Gent are unbeaten in the competition so far, with their 100% record coming to an end in their previous outing as they were held to a 1-1 draw by second-placed Partizan.

To seal their place in the knockout round, a win here will go a long way, as Partizan are hot on their heels and could win their remaining two games against Flora on Thursday and the hosts in December.

Anorthosis vs Gent Prediction

The hosts have scored four goals so far in the competition, just one shy of the visitors, but their leaky defense is a concern, conceding eight goals.

Anorthosis were impressive in their 2-2 draw against Flora but they might struggle to find the back of the net against Gent, who've conceded just one goal.

All things considered, a narrow win for the Belgian side is the most likely outcome from the game.

Prediction: Anorthosis 1-2 Gent
