Club Brugge will host Standard Liege at the Jan Breydel Stadium on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 Jupiler Pro League campaign.
The home side have had their struggles in the league of late, although they have performed brilliantly on the continental stage. They picked up a narrow but well-deserved 1-0 win over OH Leuven in their last Pro League outing before thrashing Besiktas 5-0 in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday.
Club Brugge sit seventh in the league table with 13 points from seven games. They are just one point and one place above their weekend opponents and will be looking to widen that gap on Sunday.
Standard Liege have had mixed results in the league of late and currently find themselves mid-table. They returned to winning ways in the league last time out with a 1-0 victory over Genk, with Japan international Hayao Kawabe scoring the sole goal of the game midway through the second half.
