Antwerp vs Standard Liege Prediction Prediction

Royal Antwerp still have title aspirations but their 13-point deficit against table-toppers Genk means they have little margin left for error. Their strong home form will give them confidence, with Antwerp boasting the second-best home record in the league this term.

Standard Liege have enough quality to go toe-to-toe with any side in Belgian football on their day and will fancy their chances of leaving with all three points.

Both sides are likely to go all out for victory in an end-to-end encounter. However, we are backing the hosts to do enough to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.

Prediction: Royal Antwerp 2-1 Standard Liege
