Anderlecht - Standard Liège betting tips and odds

Though Anderlecht are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The matchup this Sunday is rather one-sided, with Standard Liège seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 4.10, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

Anderlecht are coming on the back of a disappointing 2:2 draw in the previous round. Most fans hoped they managed to overcome the home field disadvantage after a solid first-half performance at Kortrijk , but the lead melted away as the game progressed.

The complete and utter dominance Standard Liège displayed in the previous round was a monumental surprise considering the circumstances. They went in as the 6.00 underdogs on away grounds but ended up snagging a decisive 2:4 victory. They were even ahead at halftime, which all makes that particular match one of the biggest upsets of the season.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from Anderlecht and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

Standard Liège fans have a lot of cause for concern – with 7 concessions in their latest 3 away games, their track record seems to indicate a tendency to underperform in away games.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday.

Decent offers are in short supply for this match, so our best tip is to risk an HT/FT bet and go for Draw/Home. It’s quite a bold offer to take at odds of 4.40, but the betting value makes it interesting.
