Eupen v Standard
Friday 19:45
In Turkey yesterday, the Canaries croaked. Fenerbahce took an early lead at Malatyaspor but couldn't build on it. They drew 1-1, failing to win at a bottom-half team for the first time in nine attempts this season.
We're in Belgium today. The Friday-night game from the top flight brings ninth-placed Standard Liege to 13th-placed Eupen. The visitors are favourites, but we're not counting on them for a clean sheet.
Eupen have found the back of the net in 14/16 league appearances at Kehrwegstadion. Only top-of-the-table Club Brugge and second-placed Antwerp have shut them out on their own patch. At the other end, the hosts have only managed a couple of clean sheets themselves. Both teams have scored in 12/16.
Standard are five away games without a clean sheet, having managed just four from 16 road trips since the beginning of term. The Reds conceded 11 times across those last five and look vulnerable this evening even if they are favourites. We're backing BTTS to land at Kehrwegstadion once more.
