St Liege vs Cercle Brugge Preview
A new Belgian Jupiler Pro League season gets underway for Standard Liege and Cercle Brugge as the two sides meet at Stade Maurice Dufrasne on the opening weekend. The hosts will be eager to put their disappointing 3-0 defeat to Viktoria Koln in the final preseason friendly behind them and begin the campaign on a positive note. Standard strengthened their squad during the summer by signing Salieu Drammeh and Sylvester Jasper, both of whom are expected to add extra quality. Despite inconsistent results, Standard have won four of their last 10 competitive matches, averaging 1.40 goals scored while conceding 1.10 per game.
Cercle Brugge, meanwhile, arrive on the back of a frustrating preseason in which they failed to win any of their last four friendlies. Defensive issues have been evident, with the visitors conceding 2.10 goals per game across their last 10 matches. Injuries to Agyekum and Ouattara further complicate their preparations, although Cercle still average 2.00 goals per match and remain a threat in the final third.
As only one of the previous 18 meetings between these teams produced more than three goals, we believe that there is big value in betting on Under 3.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This Belgian Pro League match will be played on Saturday, 8 August 2026 at 17:15.
