We said: Standard Liege 1-0 Mechelen

Mechelen have avoided defeat against Standard Liege in four consecutive meetings (two wins), recently notching a 3-2 victory in May 2024, and they seek to extend that sequence to five on Friday. However, both triumphs have come in Antwerp with two visits to Liege ending in ties. Having started this league campaign positively, Leko's team will seek to prey on Mechelen's seeming defensive weakness to eke out a marginal win. Read more.
