Gent W vs Genk W - Super League Women

A fascinating Super League Women chapter awaits on May 16, 2026 when Gent W take on Genk W at the home ground — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. O'Neill made five changes for Celtic's midweek win at St Johnstone as he rested some key players ahead of Sunday's clash.

The two sides arrive with plenty to prove, and the Super League Women contest at the home ground offers a chance to lay down a marker. The hosts have found wins hard to come by, L across their last five telling the story of a win rate of 0%. Genk W are searching for answers away from home, D over their last five with a campaign win rate of 0%. The contrast in attacking output — 0.5 versus 0 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. Central midfield remains a position Leeds are keen to add in despite so far failing to reach an agreement with Southampton for Shea Charles.

How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. Gent W will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Genk W will back themselves to cause problems on the break. Few of Bouaddi's age possess such a rare blend of physicality off the ball, and poise and balance in possession.

Star players on both sides will be eager to make their mark, and the individual duels across the pitch could go a long way to deciding the outcome. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. But the holders PSV signalled their intent with a 6-1 thrashing of Utrecht - despite conceding the first goal.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. Expect a tight, competitive affair that could easily end all square at 1-1. More than just three points is on the line at the home ground — this is a fixture that could shape the narrative of both clubs' seasons.
