KORTRIJK - STANDARD LIEGE STATS

Those two teams are on two opposite dynamics. Mons lost 4 of their last 5 games, including a recent really bad one, at home, against Charleroi who are one of the weakest team of the Jupiler League.

Beerschot had a terrible start with 3 losses and one draw in their first 4 games, but they are now on a perfect run of 4 wins in a row, 3 of them being on their pitch though.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Mons have a big defensive issue, they conceded 13 goals in their last 5 games, which gives an average of 2.6 goals conceded. The coach should be focusing on that point as this is becoming pretty serious. They don’t have any injured player at the moment.

In Beerschot, the latest signing, former Spanish international Raul Bravo played his first whole game this week. Mainly a left back, he can also play in the centre. He will bring his experience after having played in almost all the youth ranks at Real Madrid, he went on to have a six-year spell in the first team, where he almost always served as a backup; however, it was during that period that he reached the Spanish national team, representing it at Euro 2004.

He should become a key player of the squad soon.

1X2 BET KORTRIJK - STANDARD LIEGE PREVIEW

Despite of their worrying run, Mons are still seen as favourite in that game. Their odd to win is set at 2.1 with Pinnacle. The draw can be found at 3.75 on the same book. And an away win is offered at a nice 3.75 on Bet365. The price for Beerschot to win seems really high in my opinion, so that’s where I would put my money.

ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTIONS

The standard Asian handicap is set at Mons -0.5 @ 2.12 with 188bet and Beerschot +0.5 @ 1.85 with Pinnacle. Considering the defensive issues of Mons, this is probably not going to be fixed in a matter of few days, so Beerschot +0.5 is a nice value. If you are confident enough, you can even get a 2.66 odd for Beerschot in Draw No Bet.

TOTAL GOALS PREDICTIONS

Many goals are expected here, as the Over 2.5 goals is set @ 1.65 with Pinnacle. The under 2.5 is at 2.33 with the same book. This makes sense when we check at the latest results of both teams. Mons had only one game remaining under that cut this season. The average number of goals in their games is 4.25! Beerschot’s games average is 3.1, so the Over is more than likely.
