It was unexpected or even undeserved, but the point at Lotto Park rekindled the flame at Standard.
This Sunday, number 16 will try to revive definitively against Club Brugge. Unable this season to defeat a great team at home, the partners of Arnaud Bodart want to break this bad series.
The reigning Belgian champion shares the same goal, he who has not won at Sclessin since January 22, 2017, five years ago.
The Blauw en Zwart will have to be wary of Renaud Emond, who has never scored as much in Belgium as against his opponent of the day (7 goals in 17 games).
For this meeting at the top, Elsner cannot count on Bokadi, suspended. This should benefit Pavlovic. Muleka and Cimirot are uncertain due to calf problems for the former and groin pain for the latter.
The Slovenian technician still cannot count on Tapsoba, Amallah, Sissako, Fai and Rafia, at the CAN. Van Damme still presents residues of Covid and he will not be able to be aligned.
On the other side, Noa Lang returns.
The probable compositions:
Standard : Bodart; Dewaele, Dussenne, Laifis, Nkounkou; Raskin, Pavlovic; Donnum, Cafaro, Emond, Dragus
Club Bruges : Mignolet ; Mechele, Hendry, Nsoki; Mata, Buchanan, Shaper, Zipper, Vanaken ; Long, De Ketelaere
