Prediction: 1-0
St Liege
Daio Wasabi Stayen will host Friday’s football game between St. Truiden and Standard Liege. The Canaries aim to build on back-to-back wins over Westerlo and Mechelen and a triumph over Standard will see them put an extra pressure on leaders Gent. Rein Van Helden limped off with injury in the last league match, with Wolke Janssens likely to step up. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, are a team with two faces, with the team producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels. As Standard Liege are on a four-game losing run on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Friday’s encounter. As for the away side, both Aiden O’Neill and Nathan Ngoy are sidelined with injuries, while Merveille Bokadi and Zinho Vanheusden are major doubts.
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.
