Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
St Liege
Following a heavy 4-1 loss to newcomers Dender, Kortrijk will look to return to winning ways in the Jupiler League when they take on Standard Liege on Matchday 4. De Kerels experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the last league match, meaning that the lack of confidence could prove to be a big problem for the home side. Russia defender Mark Mampassi serves a one-game ban following his sending-off at Dender, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
Meanwhile, the Red Devils are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Sunday’s encounter. As Standard Liege managed to keep a clean sheet in each of their first three league games, under 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. You should know that there have been under 2.5 goals in each of the previous six meetings between the two sides in the Jupiler League. The likes of Doumbia, Henkinet, and Sahabo have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the away team.
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.
