📋 Team News: Standard Liège

It seems likely that Les Rouches could make use of the 5-4-1 formation for this one, utilising Matthieu Epolo, Marlon Fossey, Daan Dierckx, David Bates, Ibe Hautekiet, Gustav Mortensen, Adnane Abid, Ibrahim Karamoko, Marco Ilaimaharitra, Rafiki Saïd and Timothé Nkada.

🗞️ Team News: Charleroi

Due to a mostly available group, there’s only the sole fitness problem for the Charleroi boss Mario Kohnen to be concerned about. Massamba Sow (minor knock) won’t be in action.

It’s our belief that Les Zèbres seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system, starting the game with Mohamed Koné, Lewin Blum, Aiham Ousou, Cheick Keita, M. Nzita Theto, Yacine Titraoui, Etienne Camara, K. Van Den, Patrick Pflucke, Parfait Guiagon and Aurélien Scheidler.

🔮 Prediction

In our opinion, Charleroi and Standard Liège could both end up scoring in a what should be a good tussle with little between the two teams.

Let’s see how this one goes, but it looks this could be a draw. That’s why we have predicted a close game with a 1-1 draw at the conclusion of the game.
