Royale Union SG Team News
Although the regular part of the season ended in a tie for the first place with the same number of points as Genk, Royale Union SG suffered a crucial defeat against Club Brugge (1-3) in the continuation of the competition, in the battle for the champion title. This loss deprived them of the long-awaited trophy and also the position that grants participation in the prestigious Champions League.
Antwerp and Genk secured the top two spots in the Jupiler Pro League, while Royale Union had to settle for the third position on the table and participation in the Europa League. However, the new season brings new opportunities, giving Royale Union another chance to win their first Belgian championship title since 1935.
Royale Union SG has a really good team, but they are aware that achieving that result will require a bit more luck, something that was missing for them during the previous season.
Anderlecht Team News
The team of Royale Union will have a tough task in the first round. They will host the most successful club in Belgium, Anderlecht, a team that has won 35 championship titles in its rich history.
Despite their success, Anderlecht has been waiting for a new title since 2017, and their performance last season fell short of expectations as they finished 11th in the Jupiler Pro League with 46 points from 34 matches played.
Nevertheless, it must be said that Anderlecht has a strong and experienced team. While they might lack a bit of individual quality, their recent convincing 3-0 victory against Ajax during the pre-season showed their great potential.

Royale Union SG vs Anderlecht Prediction
It is primarily a clash between two very offensively powerful teams that can easily score goals.
Last season, Royale Union SG won both times in their head-to-head matches, but Anderlecht managed to score at least one goal in each match. This time around, we expect goals from both sides, and that’s why we decided for this combination.
