Slavia Prague and Union Saint-Gilloise meet for the first leg of the Champions League qualifying round in the Czech Republic on Wednesday, with both sides looking to kick-start their 2024-25 European campaign on a high.
The hosts have finished second in the Czech top flight in each of the last three seasons and although the 2024-25 campaign is still young, things are already looking similar. Jind?ich Trpi?ovsky's side are on a two-game winning streak and having kept a clean sheet in both encounters, they will be hoping for at least a draw against Saint Gilloise on Wednesday.
Union Saint-Gilloise meanwhile will be out for revenge this season after losing the Belgian Pro League title by just one point last season. The visitors kicked off their new league campaign with a goalless draw against newcomers Dender but responded well with a 3-1 win over Beerschot last time out.
Slavia Prague vs. Union Saint-Gilloise: Over 2.5 goals
The big headline in Slavia Prague's recent home matches has been entertainment. The red and whites thrashed SK Dynamo 4-0 in their last competitive outing at the ground and their recent European matches have been entertaining. At least four goals were seen in each of Slavia Praha's last four matches.
Scoring has been Union Saint-Gilloise's greatest strength in recent months. The visitors have found the back of the net in all but one of their last 13 matches, scoring at least twice in eleven of those games.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Slavia Prague vs Union Saint-Gilloise prediction: 2-2
