Gent
Maurice Dufrasnestadion will host Saturday’s Jupiler League game between Standard Liege and Gent. The Red Devils aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Westerlo and St Gilloise and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. Both Djenepo and Kawabe are pushing for recalls to the starting XI, while all Zinho Vanheusden, Merveilla Bokadi, Marlon Fossey, and Cihan Canak remain on the sidelines with injuries.
De Buffalo’s defeated Eupen 2-0 in their last away game, but beating Standard Liege at Dufrasnestadion is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Daisuke Yokota, Sven Kums, and Paul Nardi are out of contention with injuries, while Andrew Hjulsager is a major doubt. You should bear in mind that Gent are undefeated in the previous nine meetings with Standard Liege in all competitions.
Highlighted Team (St Liege):
Standard are a Belgian football club based in Liege. The club was founded back in 1898 and 11 years later they joined Belgian First League. Les Rouches (the Reds) immediately dropped to the lower leagues, but in 1921 they returned to the Belgian top flight. Standard won their first Belgian League trophy in 1958, but you should have in mind that they were level on points with second-placed Royal Antwerp.
In 2009 the Reds clinched their tenth domestic title, beating Anderlecht in the title game. Talented midfielder Axel Witsel scored the winner for Standard in the 1-0 triumph over their bitter rivals. Standard play their home games at Stade Maurice Dufrasne, the venue that was opened in 1909. The capacity of the stadium is 30 023.
Maurice Dufrasne was the club’s chairman from 1909 until 1931. Speaking of the club’s European success, Standard participated in the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup final in 1982, losing to La Liga giants Barcelona in the title game.
