14th in the standings, Standard must take points. Especially after the draw of Eupen, his closest pursuer, against the Union. And while Zulte and Seraing will face each other in the evening.
But for this match against the Buffalos, Elsner must face many absences. T1 could switch to a 3-5-2 system with Cafaro in the No.10 role and a Dragus-Tapsoba duo in attack. Provided that the latter is deemed fit.
For its part, Ghent will not be able to count on Samoise and De Sart, suspended. Nurio could start on the left, and Castro-Montes on the right, in a 3-5-2 system as well.
The probable ones of the Standard: Bodart, Sissako, Bokadi, Dussenne, Dewaele (?), Pavlovic, Raskin, Calut, Cafaro, Dragus, Tapsoba (?)
