Westerlo vs Standard Liege Prediction

Standard Liege had high hopes of European qualification this term but their chances of continental football next season have been all but extinguished. The Reds have paid the price for their inconsistency throughout the season and they have also shown an inability to hold onto leads.

Westerlo, for their part, have overachieved this term, following their promotion last season and are on course for a mid-table finish, having been tipped to battle relegation.

Both sides squared off last weekend and Westerlo's determination to claw back from a two-goal deficit in injury time could serve as a boost. Standard Liege cannot afford to drop anymore points if they are to usurp Gent in the race for the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Although one side can nick a win here, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring stalemate.

Prediction: Westerlo 1-1 Standard Liege
