Standard Liege and Sporting Charleroi will battle for three points in a Jupiler Pro League UEFA Conference League playoff tie on Sunday (May 4th). The game will be played at Maurice Dufrasnestadion.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 1-1 draw away to Leuven last weekend. They went ahead through Siebe Schrijvers' 38th-minute strike while Andreas Hountondji equalized with nine minutes left on the clock.
Charleroi, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a comfortable 4-1 home win over Dender. They were ahead at the break thanks to Antoine Bernier's 17th-minute strike and doubled their lead through Daan Heymans' 63rd-minute goal. Roman Kvet halved the deficit six minutes later but Zan Rogelj and Nikola Stulic scored late goals to secure the victory.

Standard Liege vs Charleroi Prediction
Standard Liege have little left to play for this season. However, they still have an outside chance of potentially claiming a European spot for the first time since 2021. The sequence of results required to achieve this aim is highly unlikely and is out of the Reds' hands. The one aspect they have in their control is winning their remaining games as they are currently six points behind the sole continental spot in this playoff.
Charleroi occupy that slot and hold just a one-point advantage over Westerlo with four games remaining.
We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.
