Gent vs Aarhus: Match preview
Gent have enjoyed an excellent season so far, producing impressive results in both the UEFA Conference League and the Belgian Pro League. During qualifying, the team overcame three opponents and will now look to begin their Conference League campaign with a victory. Domestically, Gent have remained unbeaten and have collected 22 points after eight rounds. They sit top of the table with a two-point lead over the team in second place. The club have not won the Belgian league title since the 2014/15 season and will be eager to finally lift the trophy again.
Aarhus have not enjoyed the best results and currently find themselves near the bottom of the table. They have collected 10 points from 10 rounds and sit in 10th place. However, they won their most recent match 3-0. They have also reached the round of 16 of the Danish Cup and attempted to qualify for the Europa League. However, Aarhus lost to Benfica by an aggregate score of 2-6 over two legs in the final qualifying round. The team will now look to get their UEFA Conference League campaign off to a winning start.
