Oostende hosts Standard Liege in round 22 of the Belgian Jupiler League. The match will be played on Thursday, January 28th at Diaz Arena (Oostende)
Oostende looks quite good this season and takes the 6th line in the standings. This team pleases its fans with the latest results (four victories, a draw, and only one defeat). It is currently one of the best home teams in the Belgian championship. The hosts hold very convincing and at the same time scoring matches at their stadium. They score in almost every match and rarely keep a clean sheet. This is confirmed by recent matches (2-1 with Kortrijk, 3-2 with Charleroi, 2-1 with Gent, etc.).

Standard Liege started to show much more stable results after leaving the Europa League because it was difficult for the team to play in two tournaments at once. But now nothing prevents the Reds from winning, and they did just that in recent matches. They issued a streak of four victories in a row and scored an average of more than two goals per game. The defenders began to make fewer mistakes, but their stats are still not perfect – Standard Liege conceded goals in 70 % of the last 10 matches.
Both of these teams perform approximately equally in the Jupiler League. They scored 33 goals each and are in 4th and 6th places. Most importantly, they managed to exchange goals in recent head-to-head meetings. The hosts show a very high quality of football in their arena, and they had one more day to rest than their opponents. Standard's attacking line is starting to prove itself. The team scored 11 goals in the previous four games, and Oostende's defense was unreliable in the last meetings, so the visitors will probably continue their goal streak. Therefore, I assume that the teams will be able to upset each other’s goalkeepers.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
