Sint-Truidense host Standard Liege at Stayen on Sunday (July 30) in the opening round of the 2023-24 Jupiler Pro League.

Standard, meanwhile, enjoyed a very solid run of results in the regular season, finishing sixth with 55 points from 34 games, their highest points tally in nine seasons. However, they suffered a capitulation in the European playoffs, with manager Ronny Deila exiting the club to join rivals Club Brugge.
