Gent vs West Ham prediction

Gent are in fine form heading into the game, as opposed to the Jekyll-and-Hyde Hammers team, so are either getting thumped or scrapping unconvincing wins.

While West Ham have the quality in their ranks, confidence will play a big part here and the hosts should sneak this first leg.

Gent to win, 1-0.
