Standard Liege

Standard Liege

The Belgian side enters their campaign off the back of two defeats. FC Viktoria Köln dismantled them 3-0 at home, a heavy loss that exposed defensive frailties. A subsequent trip to face Juventus ended 1-0, a tighter affair but still a defeat.

Recent Form

Standard have lost both their recent outings. The Cologne match was a rout - three goals conceded without reply suggests serious structural problems. The Juventus defeat, while narrower, shows they remain unable to find the net against quality opposition. Two games, zero points, zero goals scored. That's the baseline they're working from.
