Westerlo will host Standard Liege at Het Kuipje on Sunday in another round of the 2025-26 Jupiler Pro League campaign. The hosts will be looking to build on their recent results to move higher up the league table after a tough start.

Westerlo were dominant as they picked up a comfortable 3-0 win over Sint-Truidense last time out to mark their second consecutive win of the new season after losing three of their previous four. De Kemphanen, who finished the last regular season in ninth place, will be hoping to make improvements in this campaign, but will need to string together a run of solid performances in the coming weeks to achieve this.

Standard Liege, on the other hand, started the season with two wins and a draw but have since struggled to pick up points with three losses in their last four games. The visitors managed to get a point in their 1-1 draw against Mechelen last Friday and now sit in 12th place, but will be hoping to turn things around this weekend and return to winning ways.
