Genk to Win
Our first Standard Liege vs Genk prediction is a win for Genk. The pressure keeps piling on Genk and in games like this, it is always a do-or-die affair. The visitors have a chance to extend their lead even though they haven't been able to keep lots of clean sheets – bagged only one in the last ten Pro League matches. Standard Liege also kept only one clean sheet in the last ten league outings.
Over 2.5 Goals
Another probable outcome in this game which makes our second Standard Liege vs Genk prediction is from the overs/unders betting market. With only one clean sheet on both ends in the last ten Pro League matches, it means there are defensive issues that should be added, so the probability of this game having at least 3 goals is high as they have equally been scoring lots of goals lately.
