Standard Liege vs Union St.Gilloise Prediction and Betting Tips (20.09.2024)

Command Analysis

Standard Liege

Belgium

Current form

Standard can hardly set the most ambitious goals for the season, the selection of players does not allow to count on anything more than a place in the top six. At the start of the championship, Ivan Leko's team lacks stability, while the "Reds" occupy the seventh line in the table. In the last round, Standard beat Dender 2:0, thus achieving the third victory of the season.

Disqualifications and injuries

Dennis Eckert, Laurent Enkine and Souleymane Doumbia are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

Standard have won two of their last three matches
Standard have failed to score against Union in only one of their last five matches

Estimated lineup : Epolo - Shutalo, Bates, Ngoy - Kamara, O'Neill, Bulat, Kuavita, Lawrence - Zeqiri, Benjdida.

Union St.Gilloise

Belgium

Current form

Before the start of the season, Union was considered one of the main contenders for the championship title along with Genk and Brugge, but has not yet lived up to that status. With nine points, Sebastien Pocognoli's team is currently only in 11th place in the table and is already seven points behind leader Genk. Having lost 0:2 to Antwerp in the last round, Union extended its winless streak to three matches.

Disqualifications and injuries

Ross Sykes is injured. Kevin McAllister is suspended.

Interesting trends for betting

Union have not won in their last three matches – a defeat and two draws
Union have beaten Standard in their last two matches

Probable line-up : Maurice - Leysen, Machida, Sadiki - Vanhoute, Puertas, El Hadj, Castro-Montes, Ivanovic - Rodriguez, Fuseini.

Tip and bets

1.95Union's victory

After three matches without a win, Union will certainly strive to take all three points today and move up the table; the 11th line clearly does not correspond to the club's ambitions. Standard plays strong matches from time to time, but the Reds are significantly inferior to their opponents in terms of player selection, and there are problems with stability for the same reason. In such a match, it makes sense to give preference to a motivated favorite.

We think that the hosts have no chance. Betting Tip - Union victory . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.95

Do you agree with this bet?

1.91both will score

Bet on total

Today, Union will be set only for victory and will most likely attack with great force from the first minutes. It will be almost impossible for Standard to remain without conceding goals in such a situation, the hosts make mistakes regularly in defense, and are significantly inferior in class. However, Union also concedes in almost every match, is not in the best shape and is unlikely to remain dry in Liege.

Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.91
