MONS V STANDARD PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

A really tight game can be expected here. Mons is 10^th of the league with an average record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. Their guests of the day are just one point and one spot away. Standard Liege won 4 times, drew just once, and lost 5 times. They have just stopped a really bad run of 4 losses in a row when they won 2-1 at home against Anderlecht.

Their goals stats are also very similar. Mons scored 19 times, and conceded 20, while Standard scored 20 goals and conceded 19.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

When playing home, Mons is 2-1-2, still very average. They got a very bad home loss, 3-2 against the weak Charleroi, but managed to fix this by beating Beerschot 1-0. They will now try and start a run of home winnings.

Standard Liege is not doing good at all on the road as they have a run of 3 losses in a row. They were all against better ranked teams though, which could be an explanation. Now, against a team which is pretty much the same level, they have to take points to catch the lost points up and stop that run.

MONS V STANDARD PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETS PREVIEW

Even though they are playing home, Mons are not seen as favorite. Their odd to win is at 3.02 with Pinnacle. The draw has been set at 3.57 still with pinnacle, and Standard’s win can be found at 2.4 with 188bet. Anything can happen in that game, each result is as likely as the other, so if I had to put my money, that would be on Mons for a nice odd as the home team.

MONS V STANDARD PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

Mons 0 is at 2.17 with 188bet, while Standard Liege 0 is set at only 1.78. For the same reason as the 1X2, I would go for the home side here.

MONS V STANDARD PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

Bookmakers are seeing the Over 2.5 goals as quite a big favorite here, with a 1.62 odd with Pinnacle. The Under 2.5 offers an interesting 2.4 with the same bookmaker. Both teams are used to have games with 3+ goals, so the bookmakers adjusted that one well, not so much value in my opinion.
