Union Saint-Gilloise

Union Saint-Gilloise played Genk in their last league game and lost. In a 2-1 contest, this team conceded twice in the second half, and despite Anouar Ait El Hadj's last-minute strike, it could not stop them from avoiding a defeat. In the meantime, prior encounters saw this team pick up wins over Standard Liège, Dender, Anderlecht, and Ajax. Ahead of this game, Union Saint-Gilloise have 28 points, which position them in third place, as they are six points behind top place Genk in the standings.

In a goalless encounter, Antwerp had 45 per cent of possession and had seven shots with two on target, which they failed to convert. However, that result has extended Antwerp’s unbeaten run to four. In that run, this team lost to Gent while settling for draws with Leuven and Cercle Brugge. Ahead of this game, Antwerp have gone winless in their last six road matches. With 23 points, Antwerp sit in the 5th spot of the Championship Group, being 11 points behind first place Genk.

Expert Betting Tips

Antwerp have shown they are a big threat to Union Saint-Gilloise this season, and the two sides have a solid chance of winning. At home, Union Saint-Gilloise are favoured, but Antwerp's level of play defensively in recent times makes it difficult to bet against them. However, while I feel this game might be different from what we have seen from the two sides in their past meetings this season, I believe the two teams will be focused on securing maximum points, which also demands solid defensive play. I will back Union Saint-Gilloise to win at full time while we expect few goals.
