Antwerp take on the visitors Standard Liege at “Bosuilstadion” in the matchday 12 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The game will be played on Thursday, October 26th.
Antwerp demonstrate solid performance in this season despite 0:1 defeat from Club Brugge KV on the road in the latest encounter. The Jupiler League’s new-comer is occupying the fourth place in the standings with 18 points gained and 18-15 goal difference after 11 rounds played. “The Great Old” conducted five games at its own turf, having taken eight points with 10 goals for and six goals against in them. The team’s unbeaten home run counts for three clashes and has been lasting since the 9th of September.

In their turn, Standard Liege have won four out of five recent games with the last two matches against Kortrijk and Mouscron finished with the same 3:1 scoreline in the upcoming visitors’ favour. Those results allowed the side from Liege to rise from the bottom of the table up to the ninth position on which they sit comfortably with 15 points earned and 12-16 goal difference. Valeri Luchkevych‘s team picked up five points with five goals for and nine goals against in six encounters played at away fields.
Standard Liege won last five head-to-heads against Antwerp with 14:1 aggregated score. Although, it should be noted that last time the rivals met was in 2010. The forthcoming visiting visitors are the notable club which, however, is undergoing through tough times now while Antwerp streamed into the Belgian elite football division. I expect for quite an interesting fight with not many goals scored in it.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
