Based on the available information, I predict a 2-1 victory for the home team, Racing Genk.
While Lech Poznan have shown signs of improvement in their recent matches, Racing Genk's strong head-to-head record and their home advantage at the Luminus Arena suggest they have the edge in this UEFA Europa League Playoff encounter.
Racing Genk will likely look to control possession and create scoring opportunities through their experienced attacking players. Lech Poznan may struggle to contain the home side's offensive threat, but they have the quality to pose a threat on the counterattack.

This match has the potential to be a closely contested affair, with both teams eager to secure a place in the group stage of the competition.
