Gent vs West Ham United Predictions
West Ham United are back in their Europa Conference League campaign with a quarterfinal first leg match against KAA Gent on Thursday evening. Despite struggling in the Premier League, West Ham managed to secure a well-needed 1-0 win over Fulham in their last match, and in doing so, they have increased their Premier League survival chances and also released some of the pressure on manager Davi Moyes. In Europe, West Ham have been in very good form, and they will be keen to keep the momentum going in Gent.

The hosts ended second in their group and have since eliminated Qarabag and Istanbul Basaksehir to land a place in the last eight. However, Hein Vanhaezebrouck’s team were held to a 1-1 draw against Union Saint-Gilloise on Saturday, which ended their four-game winning streak in the Belgian Pro League.
Given the difference in quality between the Premier League and the Belgian Pro League, it is not surprising to see that West Ham are the favourites.
Gent vs West Ham United Main Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score
The Hammers have a perfect record in this season’s Europa Conference League, but they would have to be careful in their defensive part of the game. West Ham’s defensive shortcomings have been a big problem for them, as they have conceded at least one goal in 22 of their 29 top-flight matches.
Gent vs West Ham United Value Bet: Gift Emmanuel Orban & Danny Ings Over 2 Shots On Target Combined
For our value bet, we are heading to William Hill as we believe there is very good value in backing Gift Emmanuel Orban & Danny Ings Over 2 Shots On Target Combined at 23/20. Gent’s Gift Orban has been very prolific this season, netting 14 goals in 12 appearances since moving from Norway in mid-season.
He has what it takes to cause problems at the Ghelamco Arena and deliver one or more shots on target. In a match that I do expect to be open and entertaining, the same can be said for Danny Ings for the Hammers.
The former Saints striker will lead the line in Belgium, and with an average of 1.3 shots per game and eight goals, he should have what it takes to contribute to the total number of shots on target to land this bet.
Gent vs West Ham United Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 West Ham
West Ham’s Europa Conference League record has been impressive, with ten wins in ten matches. David Moyes’s side are also in good spirits after the crucial Premier League win over Fulham, so backing them to get a lead in this first round looks valuable. Gent are a good side, but West Ham have significantly higher quality and should get the job done in a match that should be entertaining.
