In the two sides previous 5 meetings neither has established themselves as the outright main side, in fact it is perfectky even between the pair. Both have won 2, lost 2 and drawn 1 in the last 5 meetings, meaning there is a very slim chance of a mental edge from one side or another.

Couple this with the previous meeting ending in a 2-2 draw between the sides no mental edge can really be brough into this fixture. However at home Standard Liege have been comparatively poor with all positive results coming on away days, with Friday's game being at home this could be an unfortunate omen for the former champions.

3. Beveren 1-2 Standard Liege (Belgian Cup)
4. Gent 4-0 Standard Liege
5. Standard Liege 1-0 Antwerp

The home side have shown solid enough form in their last 5 games across all competitions and will have done enough to give themselves a strong mentality coming into this one. They have recorded 3 wins and 2 losses in the last 5 including a battering by Gent, on top of this their last game was a defeat so perhaps this will influence their setup and tactics.

At the back the side have only been able to keep 1 clean sheet having conceded 7, far from a string defensive record that their opponents will be looking to exploit. The home side however has shown a capacity to score themselves though having netted a respectable 6.

2. Zulte Waregem 1-4 USG

The side have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1, similarly the form has been mixed but not exactly poor. In this run they have been at both ends of battering's recently being beat 4-1 by USG and beating Gent 4-1.

At the defensive end of the pitch they have been poor being on a run of form that has seen them without a single clean sheet in their last 5, conceding 9.
