RSC Anderlecht vs KRC Genk

Anderlecht and Genk played out a frustrating goalless draw, with the home side dominating possession but unable to find a breakthrough against a resolute visiting defense. The standout performer was 18-year-old Genk goalkeeper Lucca Brughmans, who denied Tawfik Bentayeb's first-half header and then kept out Maamar in the 71st minute to preserve the clean sheet. Genk had the better of the few clear chances themselves, with Rafiu Durosinmi striking the post from a tight angle in the 61st minute, while Ibrahima Sory Bangoura failed to connect with a free header just before the break. At the other end, Augustinsson volleyed wide after a Koutsoupias assist. Yellow cards went to Antman and Kana for the home side, and Medina for Genk, but no dismissals disrupted the tie. The stalemate leaves both clubs level on 7 points from 5 matches, well adrift of leaders Gent. Anderlecht's toothless attack, now just 3 goals all season, remains a growing concern ahead of their trip to KV Mechelen, while Genk stay unbeaten on the road but still without an away win.
