Standard Liege Preview – Can Liege raise the Standard?
Early signs suggest that Standard Liege may have done just that as they’ve earned four points from their opening two matches of this new Belgian top flight season, drawing 1-1 at home with Genk before recording a valuable 2-1 win away from home at Zulte Waregem last weekend.
This is certainly an improvement upon their poor end to last season which saw Standard Liege lose their last four matches on the trot with defeats incurred against Mechelen (home and away), Gent and Oostende.
Home form has been reasonably steady though as Standard Liege have lost just three of their last 11 home games while previous games against Antwerp have seen the draw become prevalent with three of the previous five meetings ending in stalemate.
Antwerp Preview – Can Antwerp avoid third loss on trot?
Antwerp have made a miserable start to this new Belgian First Division A season as the visitors have suffered back-to-back defeats against Mechelen 3-2 away and a 1-0 loss at home to Kortrijk which has left the visitors sitting bottom of the division without a point to their name.
The bigger picture shows that Antwerp have won just one of their last eight games overall in the Belgian top flight which came in the form of a 1-0 home win over Anderlecht while also losing five of these eight matches as well.
Results away from home haven’t been much better as Antwerp have won just two of their last eight games on the road but they’ve previously taken a point off Standard Liege in earlier exchanges so they stand a chance of perhaps picking up a point here.
