STVV will make the short trip to Liège to challenge Standard tomorrow afternoon.
STVV will travel to Standard on Saturday afternoon. Happy Mazzu has already faced the club more than 20 times as a coach, and he knows that the task will not be easy in Liège.
“It will be a difficult match in any case. Quite simply because there is a special atmosphere in Sclessin, with the public which brings a certain intensity to the stadium. After all, Standard is and remains a top club, which enjoys an important status in Belgium”, Carolo explained to Het Belang van Limburg.
Mazzu is also full of praise for Rouches coach Ivan Leko: “In addition to having a quality team, Standard also has an excellent coach who will do everything to energize his team for tomorrow’s match. “
Direct confrontations in favor of the Canaries
Following its cup success against Lierse, the Canaries hope to extend their excellent record against Rouches. Indeed, they have recorded five wins and four draws in the last ten confrontations.
In the Jupiler Pro League, STVV will need points because the club remains in the red zone but has been able to breathe new life and move up the standings since the arrival of Felice Mazzu. The latter’s task is far from over, even if he has managed to (re)build a collective capable of taking points and fighting for its survival.
