Standard Liege vs Anderlecht Prediction and Betting Tips | March 2nd 2025

Standard Liege will welcome Anderlecht to Stade Maurice Dufrasne in the Belgian Pro League on Sunday. The hosts will seek to maintain their recent momentum while the visitors want to return to winning ways.

Standard Liege vs Anderlecht Preview

Standard Liege pulled off a shock 2-1 away win over second-placed Club Brugge in their previous game - on matchday 27. It was the hosts’ first win in four outings, after two back-to-back defeats. Expectations are high as Standard Liege return to their base for this clash following their headline-grabbing performance last week.

Les Rouches sit in the seventh spot on 38 points, one place below the Championship playoffs qualification zone. There are two official matchdays left to conclude the regular season but Standard Liege have one game in hand, leaving them with three. They can’t afford any slip up in Sunday’s meeting if they are to qualify for the playoffs.

Anderlecht dropped three points in their previous match after they were beaten at home by second-placed Union Saint-Gilloise 2-0. That outcome wrapped up a bad week for the visitors, who were earlier held at home to a 2-2 draw by Fenerbahce in the Europa League. They will be aiming to get back to winning ways.

Purple & White sit fourth in the standings, tied on 45 points with fifth-placed Antwerp. They sit in the Championship playoffs qualification zone but could be displaced if they keep dropping points. Sunday’s clash is crucial for both sides, whose last meeting at Stade Maurice Dufrasne ended 3-2 in favour of Standard Liege.
