Standard Liege to win at Zulte Waregem

Standard Liege to win at Zulte Waregem

On Tuesday night, Jupiler League strugglers Zulte Waregem host Standard Liege at the Regenboogstadion.

Zulte-Waregem are currently 14th in the Belgian top-flight after a poor run of form. However, despite their recent downturn in form, the home side can move within three points of the sixth-place visitors with a victory in this clash.

The home side ended a run of eight games without a win last time out, as they recorded a 2-0 home win against Mechelen. The win was much needed, as Franck Dury’s team had suffered defeat in seven of their previous eight league games.

Zulte-Waregem’s recent home record in the Belgian top-flight has been poor, as they have lost six of their last seven league games on home soil. They have also failed to score in three of their last four league outings at home.

Standard Liege are currently sixth place in the Belgian top-flight table. However, the visitors are only ahead of Sint-Truiden on goal difference in the race for a top-six finish.

The visitors have also been on a poor run of late in the Belgian top-flight. A 3-2 win over Eupen last time out ended a five-game winless run for Standard in the league.

The visitors have been inconsistent on their travels in the Jupiler League of late. However, Sa Pinto’s side have lost three of their last four away games in the league.

A part of that poor run has been the fact that Standard have found it difficult to keep clean sheets on their travels, as they have kept just two clean sheets in their last 11 away games in the Belgian top-flight.

The recent meetings between these two teams have been pretty tight, as both teams have won 11 of the 29 meetings, while seven have been drawn.

Forebet predicts that the visitors will record a comfortable win in this clash in an entertaining encounter.
