Dender - Union Saint-Gilloise predictions

It would take a small miracle for the hosts to get to a stalemate this match, let alone win somehow. A quick look at the 6.91 price for a home win should be enough to tell you that, though.

Union Saint-Gilloise are expected to win this match, which is made quite clear by the 1.48 odds that can be found with most bookies. The odds are not so short as to make an Away Win bet not worth taking, though, which also implies a certain degree of risk.

Dender will head into the Saturday clash on a big wave of confidence following their Sporting Charleroi away draw. They return home after keeping it level both at the halftime mark and after the final whistle despite being made overwhelming underdogs in their last game.

Union Saint-Gilloise gave the fans at their home stadium quite a show in their previous game against Anderlecht, snagging a decisive 2:0 victory. The victory itself was somewhat predictable, but the first-half lead and notable lead speaks volumes about their form.

Dender are coming on the back of 3 consecutive defeats. Hopefully, they’ll be able to buck the trend.

We should point out that Union Saint-Gilloise scored more than 5 goals over the course of their previous 3 home games. They’re visitors this time around, but it’s still worth noting for the benefit of bets like Over 5 Goals.

Union Saint-Gilloise are widely considered the favourites despite playing on Dender’s home turf, and a quick look at the history of this matchup explain’s why. In the previous season, Union Saint-Gilloise handily won a match between the two teams with a hefty goal lead.

With no injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their full rosters available for an exciting showdown.

And Under 2.5 Goals bet may not be the obvious choice, but that may be exactly what makes it good. The Pncl sportsbook is pricing this fixture at 1.98, which offers substantial betting value. It’s not without risks, of course, but it’s statistically an excellent choice.
