Match Time & Date:

18:30
Prediction: 1-0
Antwerp
All eyes will be on Stade Joseph Marien when St Gilloise and Antwerp go head to head in the Jupiler League derby on Sunday afternoon. Royale Union SG are undefeated in the previous three league matches, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to clinch the domestic trophy. Midfielder Charles Vanhoutte is sidelined through suspension, while both Kevin Rodriguez and Henok Teklab are out of contention with injuries.
The Reds, on the other hand, dropped two points in a 1-1 draw with Dender at the weekend. As Antwerp have been having their ups and downs on the road of late, we predict that Royale Union SG are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s derby. In their last meeting at Stade Joseph Marien St Gilloise rolled over Antwerp 4-1. The likes of Doumbia, Alderweireld, Balikwisha, and Riedewald should miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Antwerp):
Founded back in 1880, Antwerp is one of the oldest clubs in Belgium. The Great Old welcome their rivals at Bosuilstadion, the venue with the capacity of 16,144 people. Antwerp are well known for their red home kits, with the team wearing white shirts and white jerseys when playing on the travels.
Over the years Antwerp have been trying to close the gap between Belgian giants Anderlecht and Club Brugge, but they have yet to win the title in the recent history. The Great Old clinched their first domestic trophy back in 1929, with the team repeating the success two years later. The third and the fourth titles came in 1944 and 1957 respectively.
Beerschot A.C. are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, but they have a rivalry with Club Brugge as well. The club chiefs had a long-term partnership with famous English club Manchester United in the past, with Antwerp taking young footballers on loan to Old Trafford.
