Standard Liege, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Standard Liège players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-0 away defeat at the hands of Club Brugge. Their share of possession in that meeting was 57%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Club Brugge, who had 13 shots on goal with 4 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Ronny Deila will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 9 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Stade Maurice Dufrasne, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been a mixed run of form for Standard recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
Zulte Waregem, Recent FormThe Zulte Waregem squad will be looking to reset their fortunes after their heavy 6-2 home defeat at the hands of Gent. In that game they recorded 39 % of the possession, with 11 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 8 of their 11 shots on goal.
Despite scoring 9 goals in their last 6 matches, they have failed to pick up many points, mainly because their back line have shipped 19 goals in that same period. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. They, for whatever reason, are unable to keep a clean sheet away from home, having not done so for the past 21 games.
A win for Zulte Waregem is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 8 games.
Jelle Vossen is the man of the moment at Zulte Waregem right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
A defeat for Zulte Waregem in their last match against Standard Liège was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
Playing at home, Standard have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against SVZW.
Standard player Renaud Emond will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against SVZW, having scored 4 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Stade Maurice Dufrasne.
With Gilles Dewaele (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and Nathan Ngoy (Hamstring) also unavailable in the shorter term, Standard manager Ronny Deila will be pleased to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
Mbaye Leye has a number of injury concerns in his SVZW squad to contend with: Martijn Beernaert (Unknown), Modou Tambedou (Unknown) and Ruud Vormer (Broken collarbone)
