Lauberbach completed his brace in the 56th minute while Bruny Nsimba and Mohamed Berte scored a goal each for the visitors.
Standard, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat away to Charleroi. Antoine Bernier's 44th-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.

Dender vs Standard Liege Prediction
Dender returned to the top flight for the first time since the 2008-09 season following their promotion from the Challenger Pro League last term. They have performed far beyond expectations and consequently booked their spot in the UEFA Conference League playoffs.
Standard Liege, for their part, have won just one of their last nine games, losing five in the process. They enter this game as the pre-game underdogs but Les Rouches have an overall superior record in this fixture and will be keen not to lose a first game to their hosts.
Both sides' poor form means confidence could be low in both camps and they might both prioritize not losing rather than going all out for the win. We are backing the spoils to be shared in a goalless stalemate.
