Standard Liege take on the visitors St. Gilloise at “Stade Maurice Dufrasne” in the gameweek six of the Europa League Group of the Jupiler League. The match will be played on Friday, April 28th.
Standard Liege have gone through the disastrous season. Firstly, they didn’t manage to qualify to first six teams by the outcome of the first stage of the Jupiler League, afterwards, they seemed not to have great desire to play in the group of losers. The no-win run of “Les Rouches” counts for eight matches covering five draws and three defeats. Last time Valeri Luchkevych’s team won was on the 12th of February. As a result, after five rounds in the Europa League Group Standard Liege occupy the last sixth place in the standings of the Group A with two points gained and 4-8 goal difference. In front of its fans the team from Liege failed to get victory across seven encounters in a row and last time it picked up three points was on the 11th of December 2016.

In contrast to their notable rival, St. Gilloise are in the great competitive form having lost only one out of 12 recent clashes in this season. After five matchdays in the Europa League Group the side takes the lead in the Group A with 10 points earned and 11-6 goal difference. In 2017 St. Gilloise were defeated only once in six played games.
Standard Liege and St. Gilloise met only once in their history recording 2:2 draw on the 14th of April 2017. The hosting side stays in deep crisis, meanwhile, the visiting team demonstrates excellent football and results. Thus, I believe that St. Gilloise have great opportunity even to take some points, nevertheless, I prefer to play it safe and take the visiting side with the Asian handicap.
Prediction for the match: St. Gilloise to win with +1.5 Asian handicap.
