Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-2
St Liege
Het Kuipje will host Saturday’s football game between Westerlo and Standard Liege, the two bottom-table sides. Westerlo do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team losing each of their last three league matches in the Conference League Group and they must be low on spirits ahead of the visit of Standard. Romeo Vermant is banned for the match, while Emin Bayram misses out with injury.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, failed to win the previous three league fixtures, but they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course in the national championship. Given Westerlo’s shaky defence, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from Saturday’s clash. The likes of Marlon Fossey, Aiden O’Neill, Laurent Henkinet, and Nathan Ngoy are out of contention with injuries for the visiting 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.
