In the short time that Union St Giloise have been playing in the elite division, they have already become one of the top clubs in Belgium, constantly participating in the championship race, as well as making it to the European Cup play-offs. This season, Union are unlikely to catch up with Genk, but the fight for a place in the top-3 is not over yet and promises to be tough.
Mechelen also need points, as there are only 5 rounds left until the end of the regular season, and the team is still in the relegation group, 1 point behind the 12th place. But we don't think that the visitors will manage to take points today, as Mechelen is in a terrible shape now (1 point in 5 rounds), but Union have 6 wins in a row in the championship.
Prediction: Union Saint-Gilloise to win. We recommend the “1 Win” bet, odds 1.54
