However, Gent's defensive solidity at home, conceding only 0.5 goals per game with a 75% clean sheet rate, gives them a slight edge. Their recent form shows a balanced approach, scoring in half their recent games while keeping three clean sheets. Hibernian's more open style and higher goal tally could be stifled by Gent's home advantage and tactical discipline.
