Leiden to Ghent by train

Staying a couple of days in Leiden before catching the tour in Ghent. Do I need to make train reservations? Also how much time. Planning to allow about 5 hours in case of missed trains because of courses we will.

Avoid the Eurostar and you will not need any reservations, as well as costing less. There is a connection every hour at 4 past the hour from Leiden Centraal, with train changes at Rotterdam Centraal and Antwerp Centraal, taking 2 1/2 hours.
