Genk and Real Betis Clash in Landmark European Showdown

On October 23rd, 2025, Belgian club Genk will host Spanish side Real Betis in a landmark European encounter. This will be the first-ever meeting between the two teams on the continental stage.

Genk have a poor record against Spanish opponents, winning just one of their 10 major European matches against teams from Spain. In contrast, Real Betis have faced Belgian clubs four times previously, losing both home games but winning both away fixtures.

Genk's recent home form in Europe has also been a concern, with the team winning just two of their last 16 matches at their home ground. This season, they have already suffered defeats against Lech Poznan and Ferencváros.

However, Real Betis will be looking to capitalize on their own strong away form in the UEFA Europa League, having won five of their last eight matches on the road in the competition. Giovani Lo Celso, in particular, has been in impressive form, scoring eight goals and providing one assist in his last 14 Europa League appearances.
