Standard Liege vs Eupen Prediction & Match Preview

Standard Liege will hope to return to winning ways when they welcome Eupen on Saturday. Fans of Eupen will hope for a win to reduce the seven-point gap between their team and the host.

It’s been a tough season for Standard Liege so far. They have only won two of their last five league matches, losing three. They come into this clash following a 1-0 away loss to Genk last weekend.

Last weekend’s loss was their 12th defeat of the season. A run that has left them 10th on the Belgium Pro League table. They have recorded just 7 wins and drawn 10 so far.

Fans of Standard Liege will be excited by the fact that their team hasn’t lost to Eupen in the last 2 league games.

Eupen heads into this clash after a 1-0 win over St. Truiden in their last league match. That win was their first in seven matches. They had maintained a 6-game winless run before last weekend’s victory.

Eupen have conceded 10 goals in 5 of their last 6 games. They definitely must do much better in defense if they hope to avoid the drop. They are presently in the relegation zone with 24 points from 29 matches.

The away team is winless against Standard Liege when they have visited them in the last 7 league games.
