Gent host Standard Liege at the Ghelamco Arena on Sunday (October 29) in the Jupiler Pro League.

The hosts have struggled in the league but fared well in the continental stage. Gent lost 2-0 to Cercle Brugge in their league game last weekend but won 5-0 against Icelandic outfit Breidablik in the UEFA Europa Conference League in midweek.

Gent are third in the league table with 20 points from 11 games. They're five points behind league leaders Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

Standard, meanwhile, endured a torrid start to their season but have found form in recent weeks. They picked up a brilliant 3-2 comeback win over Anderlecht in their last game. Three different players got on the scoresheet early in the second half to overturn a two-goal first-half deficit.
