📊 AI-generated recap and structured data

Genk won 2-0 at OH Leuven in the Belgian Pro League, landing our model's 45% pick for a Genk victory. Leuven had managed just one draw in their last five matches and failed to score despite a 60% both-teams-to-score rate in that span, while Genk extended their recent form with a third win in five games. The visitors' defensive solidity proved decisive on the day. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

The result moved Genk closer to the upper half, consolidating their position around 7th place with a confidence-building away win. OH Leuven's defeat deepened their mid-table struggles at 12th; they remain winless in three and face mounting pressure to arrest their slide. The 2-point gap between the sides now favours Genk's momentum over Leuven's fragile form.
