KAA Gent resume their UEFA Europa Conference League campaign against Partizan at Ghelamco Arena on Thursday, hoping to maintain their 100% record in the competition.

The hosts have not been able to mimic their great run in the competition in the Belgian Pro League and are currently in 10th place in the league standings. They lost at home to league leaders Union Saint-Gilloise on Monday.

Partizan are second behind the hosts in the Group B standings and travel to Belgium having won three league games in a row.

KAA Gent vs Partizan Prediction

Gent have managed to keep back-to-back clean sheets in the competition and their defense has been their biggest strength so far. Partizan have managed to score four goals and will be hoping to bring some of that league form to the competition.

All things considered, Gent seem to have the upper hand at the moment and we predict another narrow win and a clean sheet for the home team.

Prediction: KAA Gent 1-0 Partizan
