Royale Union Saint-Gilloise Team News
One of the biggest surprises of this year’s Europa League is undoubtedly Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. The second-placed team in the Belgian championship is playing outstandingly this season. Genk, which is in the first place, has five points more than them, and in the last three matches in all competitions, they recorded two wins and one draw.
In the last championship match, they beat the first favorite for the title, Genk, 1:2. The home team took the lead in the 24th minute with a goal from the penalty spot, but by the end of the first half, the guests had turned the score in their favor and deservedly celebrated. Bart Nieuwkoop and Simon Adingra scored for Union.
Royale Union Saint-Gilloise looks set to have a fully prepared squad for the upcoming duel with Union Berlin, with the only questionable players being Dennis Eckert Ayensa and Ross Sykes, but they should be fit.
After last week’s excellent edition of the home team in Germany, it is expected that the same eleven players will run on the field in the next match, but that remains to be seen.
Union Berlin Team News
The players of Union Berlin tied after the defeat against Bayern Munich in the 22nd round of the Bundesliga, tied for three draws in all competitions. The last in the series was against Wolfsburg away, and the result was 1:1. Josip Juranović gave his team the lead in the 72nd minute from the penalty spot, but only twelve minutes later, the home team equalized.
They are currently tied for third place with 45 points, the same number as RB Leipzig. However, the fifth-placed Freiburg has the same number of points, so until the end of the season there will be a fierce battle for the first four places that lead to the Champions League. In this calendar year, their only defeat was against first-placed Bayern.
Unlike the home team, Union Berlin will travel to Belgium without Rani Khedira, Andras Schafer, and Danilho Doekhi. Niko Giesselmann had a forced substitution in the match against Wolfsburg, so there is a chance he will miss the next match. All others will be available.
If Giesselmann is not still being prepared will probably be replaced by Jerome Roussillon. Timo Baumgartl and Janik Haberer will start in Belgium, maybe.

Expected Lineups

Union Berlin (3-5-2): Ronnow; Baumgartl, Knoch, Leite; Juranovic, Thorsby, Laidouni, Haberer, Roussillon; Becker, Behrens
Royale Union Saint-Gilloise vs Union Berlin Prediction
The visiting team is a slight favorite in this match. However, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise has the advantage of the home field, and they managed to draw a draw in the first game, so we doubt that Union Berlin will surely win. Therefore, our tip for this duel is a draw or a win for the visitors, with more than 1.5 goals in the entire match.
