Standard Liege will host Genk at the Maurice Dufrasne on Friday in the 26th round of the 2024-25 Jupiler Pro League campaign. The hosts will be keen to return to winning ways after suffering a disappointing defeat last time out.

Standard Liege’s 4-2 away loss to Westerlo on Sunday marked their first defeat since the start of the year and their eighth of the league season. The hosts, who have won three and drawn two of their last six league games, now sit in seventh place, two points shy of the championship round spots. They will face one of their toughest tests when they play the league leaders on Friday.

Genk picked up a fifth consecutive league victory after coming from behind to defeat Cercle Brugge 2-1 last weekend and maintain their six-point lead at the top of the table. The hosts, who have been in remarkable form all season, having won 18 of their 25 league games so far, have only lost once in their last 10 games across all competitions and will be hoping to continue their fine form this weekend.
