Royal Antwerp vs Union Saint-Gilloise Prediction

The Great Old returned to goalscoring and winning ways after three games on Sunday and will look to continue that form in this match. They are unbeaten in their last five home meetings against Saint-Gilloise and have suffered just one loss in their last 10 home games.

Les Unionistes have seen a drop in form in the championship phase, suffering four consecutive defeats. They have conceded eight goals in these games while scoring just four goals, and might struggle here.

Based on the current form of the two teams and recent history, it is anticipated that they will settle for a low-scoring draw.
