The Jupiler Pro League match between Royale Union Saint-Gilloise and Royal Antwerp is scheduled to take place at the Stade Joseph Marien on Sunday, September 3. Even though they were unable to pick up a win in their most recent league play, these two teams are strongholds in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League this season. In the next section, I provide betting alternatives while also providing a more in-depth analysis of the contest.

Following their victory over Lugano in the Europa League Qualifiers, Union Saint-Gilloise will be looking for a similar outcome to their most recent match, which they won 0-1. During that match, Union Saint-Gilloise held 44 percent of the possession and had 16 shots on goal, with six of them finding the target. Dennis Eckert Ayensa was the one who put the ball in the back of the net for Union Saint-Gilloise in the 7th minute. On the other end of the field, Lugano had 11 shots on goal, but only two of them were successful. The appearance of a zero in the scoreline of recent Union Saint-Gilloise games is an intriguing development to observe. If you take their previous six matches leading up to this one, a bet on both teams scoring would have resulted in a loss in five of those matchups.
Antwerp - visiting team are having a good time
Antwerp will enter the match having just come off a victory in their most recent match, which was a UCL qualifier match against AEK Athens that they won 1-2.During that match, Antwerp had 37% control of the ball and 7 shots on goal, with 3 of those shots finding the target. Both Gyrano Kerk and Michel-Ange Balikwisha scored for Antwerp. Gyrano Kerk scored for Antwerp in the 73rd minute, while Michel-Ange Balikwisha scored in the 90th minute. On the other end of the field, AEK Athens had 17 shots on goal, three of which were successful. The game-winning goal for AEK Athens was scored by Sergio Araujo in the 90th minute. The Antwerp defense unit has put together a string of strong showings, and as a result, the total number of goals they have conceded over the course of their most recent six matches is only three. During the same time frame, their forwards have managed to score 11 goals for themselves.

Expert Betting Tips
The Union Saint-Gilloise team now has a winning streak of two games in a row in all competitions, giving them five wins in their previous six matches overall. Having said that, it is important to highlight the fact that they have won their last three games at home. Antwerp, on the other hand, has triumphed in each of their most recent two games and has suffered defeat in only one of their most recent seven matches. They have, however, been having a difficult time on the road as of late and may end up losing. I also believe that the scoreboard of this match will be quite tight due to the excellent defensive profiles of both sides. However, because Union Saint-Gilloise will be playing at home, I anticipate that they will be able to enjoy a nail-biting 1-0 victory.
