Union St.-Gilloise
- Union St.-Gilloise are fourth in the Pro League 2026-2027 with 20 points after eight matches, but they have won three of their last five league matches.
- Union St.-Gilloise look a decent side, but they've been a little inconsistent in the Pro League 2026-2027.
- Les Unionistes have won just three of their last five games, with two ties during that time.
- Still, David Hubert has kept them hard to break down since taking over on 13 October 2025.
Cercle Brugge KSV
- Cercle Brugge KSV are 18th in the Pro League 2026-2027 table with just three points after the same number of games.
- Cercle Brugge KSV, on the other hand, are in freefall and Lars Friis, who has implemented a pressing, direct style, is still trying to steady the ship.
- They have won just once in their last five (W1, D1, L3)).
Key Players
- Raul Florucz leads the way in the Pro League 2026/2027 scoring with four in seven games and the hosts will look to get him involved in this game.
- Steve Ngoura is Cercle's top scorer, with just two in seven.
Betting Insights
- Union are 1.3 favourites to win here and it's easy to see why Cercle are 9.0 and the draw is priced at 5.4.
- The hosts have a compact mid-block and fast, wing-back transitions, so this could be a battle in the half-spaces on Sunday.
- That's not a bet that punters should be involved in because there's an obvious gulf in quality between these sides.
- After the two teams' respective Europa League and cup games in midweek, Union played a tough KFC Nijlen at home in the Beker van Belgie 2026/2027 and came away 3-0 winners.
- Cercle had to fight their way to a win away at regional side Sporting Hasselt, edging it 2-1.
Prediction
The game could still be tight with a fair amount of tactics involved, so we're siding with Both teams to score - No bet , which seems a good fit given Union's ability to control the game at home should smother the visitors' attacking threat.
