Union Saint-Gilloise vs Standard Liege Preview
The dream season continued last weekend as Union beat Kortrijk 3-1 away from home, maintaining their eight-point lead at the top of the table.
That victory means Union have not tasted defeat in the league since September. They have without doubt been the most consistent outfit in Belgium this season, but another three points is crucial if they are to take another step toward lifting the trophy.
It’s been another less than impressive campaign for St. Liege, who could still find themselves in the relegation play-offs. They currently sit just three points above this, but defeat this weekend could see them dragged further into the battle.
Given they have not won an away game since a 2-1 victory over Leuven in September, it seems unlikely they can grab all three points in Brussels.

Union Saint-Gilloise vs Standard Liege Betting Tips
Union Saint-Gilloise to win and both teams to score – 3.10
Union are in brilliant form but they are not keeping many clean sheets. They have conceded two goals in their last three home games, meaning they have now conceded in five consecutive matches on home soil.
Despite not winning in their last six away games, Liege have scored in five of them. Union could need 2+ goals to seal the points.
Mohamed Amoura anytime scorer – 2.10
The young Algerian is in the form of his life with 17 league goals in 20 appearances. He could be amongst the goals again this weekend.
