Beveren Set to Keep It Tight at Standard
Standard Liege sit ninth after ten games while SK Beveren sit just three places below. Both sides arrive with only one win in their last five outings and have struggled to keep clean sheets. Standard score 1.2 goals a game at home yet concede 0.8, numbers that point to narrow margins rather than heavy defeats. Beveren average 1.0 goal away from home and have hit the net in most recent away fixtures. Head-to-head meetings show Standard winning seven of the last ten but seven of those ten also produced over 2.5 goals, suggesting Beveren often stay within a goal or two. Standard have managed just six games with three or more total goals in their ten league matches so far. The visitors will look to stay compact and hit on the break in what could stay close throughout.
