Standard Liege host Kortrijk on 31 October 2026 at 20:15 in the Jupiler Pro League, with the home side looking to recover from a 2-1 defeat to Genk. Liege have won four of their last ten matches at home and average 1.39 goals for per game on their own ground, though they've conceded 1.50 per outing. Goalkeeper Matthieu Epolo is suspended, so Lucas Pirard takes the gloves. Andi Zeqiri is pushing for a start after scoring off the bench last time out.
Kortrijk arrive in poor form, winning just once in their last ten matches. They have not played since 10 October, so rest should not be a factor. Shandre Campbell misses out through suspension following his red card in a 3-0 loss to Genk. The visitors have scored only 0.50 goals per game across their last ten and failed to score in 80 percent of recent away matches. Kortrijk have not won away in their last five outings.
Form and H2H
Liege's home record shows four wins, one draw, and five losses in their last ten. Kortrijk's away form is worse: one win, two draws, and seven losses across the same span. The visitors average 2.10 goals conceded per game on the road.
Head-to-head meetings between these sides date back to 2011. Liege won 3-1 and 2-0 in two of their four victories, while Kortrijk took 2-0 and 2-1 wins in their two triumphs. Only three of the last 23 encounters produced more than three goals, suggesting a low-scoring pattern.
Best Bet
Standard Liege to win at 1.76 with 1xBet or 1.71 with 1Win. Liege's home advantage, defensive solidity, and Kortrijk's away struggles make the hosts clear favourites. The correct score prediction is Liege 2-0 Kortrijk.
Odds to Watch
Under 2.5 goals sits at 2.10 across the market. Kortrijk's attacking drought and Liege's defensive record at home suggest a low-scoring affair. Both Teams to Score No is priced at 2.05, reflecting Kortrijk's inability to find the net in recent away fixtures.
