RAAL La Louviere will debut on Saturday at the strongest level of Belgian football. They are probably the weakest Jupiler Pro League team at the moment and will need a lot of improvement to have a chance to stay out of relegation. RAAL La Louviere had a bad preseason as they won only one of six matches. The only victory came in the last test when Frederic Taquin's team won 1-0 against Namur. The poor attacking line stands out as a problem for RAAL La Louviere, as they scored only five goals in six friendly matches this summer.
Standard Liege had a mediocre season last year, and most pundits expect Les Rouches to have another similar 2025/26 season. However, Standard Liege were almost perfect in the preseason with three wins and one draw, so maybe their fans can hope for more than a mid-table placement. In the previous game, Standard Liege played 2-2 against Lens. It is important to mention that Mircea Rednic's team allowed only two goals in four friendly matches.
RAAL La Louviere vs Standard Liege pick: Standard Liege to win AH (0)
RAAL La Louviere and Standard Liege showed completely different form this summer. We should expect Standard to continue with good performances and to open the 2025/26 season with a victory.

RAAL La Louviere team news
RAAL La Louviere should be better than the previous season as the most important players remained in the team. The biggest addition is surely Alexis Beka Beka, who was once a good player at the Ligue 1 level. Beka Beka made the headlines by threatening to commit suicide in September 2023. After missing the 2023/24 season, Beka Beka returned to football in Caen B last season. The other solid additions for RAAL La Louviere this summer are Lucas Bretelle (who came from Orleans), Matthis Riou (Guingamp), Theo Epailly (Boulogne), and Oucasse Mendy (Martigues).

Standard Liege team news
Standard Liege are probably weaker than last season, as some important players left the team this summer. Mircea Rednic's team had a good signing in Rafiki Said (who came from Troyes), Casper Nielsen (Club Brugge), Nayel Mehssatou (Kortrijk), Thomas Henry (Verona), and Josue Homawoo (Dinamo Bucuresti). We should expect more arrivals for Standard Liege in the coming weeks.
