SK Beveren – Union St. Gilloise

In what promises to be a stark contrast of form, 11th‑placed SK Beveren head to the Freethiel Stadion needing a win to climb out of the relegation zone after three victories but five defeats, leaving them with just nine points and a –6 goal difference. Their opponents, Union St Gilloise, sit comfortably in fourth with twenty points, unbeaten in ten games and boasting a +18 goal margin after scoring 22 and conceding only four. The Belgian side have already bested Beveren in their most recent encounters, and the gap in both points and defensive solidity suggests a tough test for the home side. For Beveren, a positive result could be a lifeline, while Union will look to extend their unbeaten run and keep pressure on the leaders.
