Form guide
Union Saint-Gilloise are unbeaten in ten games since a Champions League qualifying defeat at Bodø/Glimt in August. They have not lost in the Belgian league this season, with wins including 3-0 against Anderlecht and 5-0 against Lommel. In the Europa League they won 3-0 at Viktoria Plzeň and drew 1-1 with Real Sociedad last week, so they have four points. They warmed up with a 3-0 cup win at the weekend.
Hapoel Beer Sheva are in good domestic form, with four straight league wins, the latest 2-1 against Hapoel Jerusalem at the weekend. Europe has been harder. They drew 0-0 with Dinamo Zagreb and lost 2-1 at AZ Alkmaar last week, so they have one point. Their heaviest league defeat was 4-1 at home to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Head-to-head
We found no previous meeting between the two clubs.
Team news
Union have several players out, including Sykes, Mac Allister and forward Rodríguez. Beer Sheva are without Nachmias and forward Biton.
Our prediction and why
We take Union or draw (1X). Union have not lost in ten games and have not been beaten at home this season. Beer Sheva are winless in the Europa League and lost on their only trip so far.
Other bets to consider
Over 1.5 goals is our second pick. Eleven of Union's last twelve games had at least two goals, the exception being a 0-0 with Zulte Waregem, and ten of Beer Sheva's last twelve did too.
