Match preview
It is all to play for in Group F in the Europa Conference League after both games finished 0-0 on matchday one in the section but Gent could take the initiative in their clash with League of Ireland side Shamrock Rovers on matchday two.
Gent took a respectable point off Molde in their opener and are performing well in the Belgian Pro League, which is ranked 27 places above the League of Ireland according to Uefa's league coefficient rankings last season.
Shamrock spurned some decent opportunities in their stalemate with Djurgarden last time out and could have come out on top but they have failed to win any of their last four away games in 90 minutes.
Gent are fancied to take the spoils but none of their last seven encounters has featured more than three goals and this could be another low-scoring tussle.
