LiontipsStandard vs. Kortrijk. Prediction and bets on the Belgian Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
Standard, for objective reasons, was not able to set the goal of finishing in the top six, but the Belgian championship regulations allow it to compete for European cups by finishing no lower than 12th. For now, Ivan Leko's team is in 10th place in the table with 25 points and is only two points behind seventh-placed Charleroi. In the last round, Standard drew a goalless away game with Mechelen, thus extending its winless streak in all tournaments to six matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kalut and Ngoy are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Standard have not won in their last six matches – a defeat and five draws
- Standard have not scored in their last three matches
Probable line-up: Epolo - Hautekit, Dirks, Lawrence - Fossey, Kouavita, Price, Alexandropoulos, Kamara - Zeqiri, Eckert.
Current form
Kortrijk has a very modest selection of players and in such a situation it was very difficult to count on anything more than maintaining a place in the elite. At the moment, Yves Vanderheg's team is not coping with its task and is in the penultimate place in the table with 18 points, five points behind 12th Westerlo - such a handicap can already be called significant. In the last round, Kortrijk lost without much chance at home with a score of 0:1 to Charleroi, thus suffering its 12th defeat of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tsunoda and Nacho are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Kortrijk have not won in their last four matches – three defeats and a draw
- Kortrijk have not lost to Standard in their last four matches - three wins and a draw
Probable line-up: Vandenberg - Laja, Silva, Fujii - De Neve, Takamine, Sassako, Alebiosu, Bruno - Ambrose, Messaoudi.

2.55Tip and bets
Standard have been frankly unimpressive in recent matches and are gradually sliding down the table, but today there is a chance to put an end to the protracted unsuccessful series. The Reds' opponents are the penultimate team in the championship, in a confrontation with which the hosts are capable of setting themselves maximum goals. Kortrijk is inferior in the selection of players, is not in the best shape, it is unlikely that the guests have a chance to cling to even one point.
We think that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is Standard's victory . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.95
Bet on total
Standard are undoubtedly the favourites – despite all their problems, the Reds are quite successful on their home field and regularly take points. It is obvious that today the hosts will strive only for victory and will certainly go on the attack with great force from the first minutes in an attempt to snatch all three points and decide a lot right away. Kortrijk is not particularly reliable in defence, but today they will also have to take risks – an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.85
Bet on corners
Standard are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
