Match preview
Standard Liege welcome Antwerp to Stade Maurice Dufrasne for matchday five of the Jupiler Pro League campaign, with only one point separating the two clubs in the early standings. Standard Liege enter the fixture unbeaten across their opening four league encounters, having collected eight points through two victories and two draws while netting nine goals.
Antwerp sit in ninth position with seven points from four matches. While their attack has been prolific with ten goals scored—led by Michael Frey and Anthony Valencia—defensive issues have surfaced recently, evidenced by a 4-4 draw with Genk followed by a 4-1 home defeat against St. Truiden.
