Standard Liege vs Kortrijk Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 31 October 2026

The two sides have different motivations - the hosts are well off the pace for European qualification, while Kortrijk are fighting to get out of the relegation zone, which adds pressure on the visitors at this early stage of the season.

Head-to-head statistics Standard Liege - Kortrijk

Standard Liege Team Overview
Standard's previous Jupiler Pro League match on 25 October 2026 ended in a 1-2 away defeat to Genk. The hosts had 19 shots to six and created chances worth 4.58 xG against 1.19, yet the margin was just one goal.
Standard are having a season without any clear objective: they sit ninth and are well off the European places. Over their last ten matches, they have four wins, four defeats and two draws - a middling return for a mid-table side. Their last five games have been notably inconsistent: one win and four defeats. Their attacking numbers are running at around 1.6 goals per game, while defensively they are conceding roughly the same - an average of 1.5. That kind of balance means Standard can exploit weaknesses in the opposition, but it offers no guarantee of dominance even against a side from the bottom of the table.
Match Results: Standard Liege

Kortrijk Team Overview
Kortrijk's away match against Genk on 10 October 2026 ended in a 0-3 defeat. In that most recent Pro League fixture, they managed just one shot on target compared to seven for their opponents, and had a player sent off.
Kortrijk are in the relegation zone and already fighting for every point - just three from eight matches, with the pressure mounting. Their recent run has been dire: eight defeats in their last ten matches, just two wins and no draws. Defensively they have been too open, conceding an average of 2.1 goals per game, while their attack has offered little threat at the other end, averaging 0.7 goals per match. Their last five matches only reinforce the sense of crisis - four defeats and one solitary win point to deep problems across the entire team.

In 11 of the last 12 head-to-head matches at Standard's ground, there have been fewer than 3.5 goals. Kortrijk average 0.4 goals per game in their last 10 away matches, while Standard average 0.6 goals conceded at home over the same period. However, Kortrijk concede an average of 2.4 goals per game away from home in their last 10 matches, which raises the risk of a higher-scoring game. The selection is Total Goals - Under 3.5 at odds of 1.43*.
Corners Prediction
Standard have had more than 4.5 corners in five consecutive matches. That run is directly relevant to the selected line, though there are no average corner figures available for further assessment. The bet is Standard Team Corners - Over 4.5 at odds of 1.37*.
Both Teams to Score Prediction
Kortrijk have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 away matches. Over their last 10 away matches they average 0.4 goals scored, while Standard average 0.6 goals conceded at home over the same span. However, Standard have conceded against Kortrijk in 10 of their last 11 home head-to-head meetings - a significant caveat. Taking into account the visitors' current away record, we're going with Both Teams to Score - No at 2.15*.
High-Risk Bet
Kortrijk have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 away matches. Over their last 10 away fixtures, they average 0.4 goals scored, while Standard average 0.6 goals conceded at home over the same span.

Safer Bet
Kortrijk have gone 14 away matches without a win. This season they have lost all four of their away fixtures, while Standard have lost just one of their four home matches. These figures support a bet on Standard not to lose (1X) at odds of 1.17*.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Standard hold a clear advantage in form - they are scoring almost three times as many goals as Kortrijk, and the visitors' recent run has been poor both in results and in the quality of their play. The key league trend reinforces this gap: Kortrijk have lost seven of their last eight Jupiler Pro League matches and remain rooted to the bottom of the table, even with the strong motivation of trying to secure survival now. The editor's main prediction is a Standard win.
