After a successful run in the cup and a 2-0 extra time win against Cercle Brugge, Gent will look to continue their great run with a home league game against Standard Liege. Gent are among the best Belgian teams this season. At the moment, they are 5th with 30 points, but in addition to a very good position in the table, what particularly pleases all the fans of this club is the form in which Gent is. They are without a loss in the last ten matches, including friendlies. The current results they are achieving may be above the expectations of the fans before the start of the season, but it is precisely on this self-confidence that Gent is recording these results. Although they are without their best player, Tissoudali, for most of the season, this does not prevent them from playing excellently in attack. In the foreground stood out the player who came from Mechelen at the beginning of the season, Cuypers, who is the team's top scorer with 9 goals. He confirmed his excellent form before the break due to the World Cup with two goals in a friendly match against Heerenveen, as well as a goal in the last game Gent played in the cup. He will certainly be the main option in Gent's attack in this game as well. Of course, the good results of this team are not only due to a good attack, a very good defense also plays a big part in that, and Gent really has an excellent defense. They allowed only one goal in the last seven matches. The fact that they managed to score 24 goals in those seven matches also shows how well they use the opportunities that come their way. Gent's first objective in this resumption of the championship is to try to climb the table to be among the top four and for now they are on a good path. They don't think about losing points at home and enter this game with maximum focus.

Unlike Gent, Standard really can't boast of good form lately. The team that managed to beat teams like Antwerp and Club Brugge at the beginning of the season really doesn't look like itself. In the last 6 matches, they have only one draw and five defeats. They experienced their last defeat in the cup against Antwerp very convincingly, with 4-0. What the game with Antwerp showed, like the previous three friendlies, is that Standard has a lot of problems with scoring goals. In those 4 matches, they managed to score only one goal, which is certainly not encouraging when they are visiting one of the best defenses in the league. The atmosphere in the team is very bad, as coach Ronny Delia himself stated after the defeat in the cup. He said that his team lacked energy, the pace was not good, and the commitment was not enough. There are too many negative things around the team, so they need to unite to rebuild the system they play and regain some positive energy. An additional problem for Standard in this match will be the absence of Philip Zinckernagel, who scored 6 goals in 9 games and is a very important player for this club. It was not reported that he suffered any injury, it would rather be that there were some disagreements, which only speaks of the atmosphere that currently reigns in Standard. I must emphasize that I do not expect an easy job for Gent in this match, but the technical, tactical and even emotional difference between these two teams in the last few weeks must be highlighted. Gent has performed at the highest level, while Standard is full of doubts due to poor performances and results. Because of all that, I believe that Gent can win this game in their favor, with at least two goals scored.

在杯赛中取得成功，并在加时赛中2-0击败布鲁日之后，金特将在主场对阵标准列日的比赛中继续他们的出色表现。金特是本赛季比利时最好的球队之一。目前，他们积30分排名第五，但除了积分榜上的好位置，让所有球迷特别高兴的是根特的状态。在过去的10场比赛中，包括友谊赛，他们一球未失。他们目前取得的成绩可能超出了球迷在赛季开始前的预期，但正是在这种自信的基础上，根特记录了这些成绩。虽然他们的最佳球员蒂苏达利在赛季的大部分时间里都没有出场，但这并不妨碍他们在进攻端发挥出色。最引人注目的是本赛季初来自梅赫伦的球员库珀斯，他以9粒进球成为球队的头号射手。由于世界杯的原因，他在与海伦芬的友谊赛中梅开二度，并在根特队的最后一场比赛中打入一球，证实了自己的出色状态。在本场比赛中，他也将成为金特进攻端的主要选择。当然，这支球队的好成绩不仅仅是由于良好的进攻，非常好的防守也起到了很大的作用，而金特确实拥有出色的防守。他们在最近七场比赛中只丢了一个球。他们在这7场比赛中打进24球的事实也表明他们很好地利用了机会。金特的第一个目标是试图爬上积分榜进入前四，现在他们在一个良好的道路上。他们不会考虑在主场丢分，而是以最大的注意力进入这场比赛。

与金特不同的是，标准队最近真的不能吹嘘自己的好状态。这支在赛季初成功击败安特卫普和布鲁日俱乐部的球队，看起来真的不像自己了。在最近的6场比赛中，他们只取得了1平5负的战绩。他们在杯赛中以4-0的比分击败了安特卫普。和前三场友谊赛一样，与安特卫普的比赛表明，标准队在进球方面存在很多问题。在这4场比赛中，他们只进了一个球，这当然不是令人鼓舞的，因为他们是在联赛中防守最好的球队之一。球队的气氛非常糟糕，主教练罗尼·迪利亚在杯赛失利后表示。他说他的球队缺乏活力，节奏不佳，承诺也不够。球队周围有太多负面的东西，所以他们需要团结起来重建他们的体系，重新获得一些正能量。标准队在这场比赛中的另一个问题是菲利普·津克纳格尔的缺阵，他在9场比赛中打入6球，是俱乐部非常重要的球员。没有任何关于他受伤的报道，更有可能是球队内部存在一些分歧，这只说明了目前标准队的气氛。我必须强调的是，我并不期望在这场比赛中对根特队来说是一件容易的事情，但这两支球队在过去几周内在技术、战术甚至情感上的差异必须得到强调。根特的表现处于最高水平，而标准因糟糕的表现和结果而充满了怀疑。正因为如此，我相信金特队至少能进两球，以他们的优势赢得这场比赛。
