Our prediction for this Champions League match:
Lotto Park will be the centre of attention when St Gilloise and Slavia Prague take on each other in an eagerly-awaited Champions League qualifier. St. Gilloise are determined to claw back a two-goal deficit in the second leg and they have no other choice but to go all-out attack in the reverse fixture. Boss Sebastien Pocognoli rested several first-team regulars in a 4-3 loss to Westerlo at the weekend, but the 37-year-old tactician is going to field the best possible side in the Champions League clash.
Forward Mohammed Fuseini is banned for the match. The Red and Whites, on the other hand, are on a four-game winning run in all competitions, but seeing that Royale Union SG are tough to beat at home, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. The likes of Chaloupek, Ogungbayi, Stanek, Vlcek, and Zmrzly should miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Slavia Prague):

Slavia Prague is considered one of the most famous teams in Czech Republic. The Cervenobili won the Czechoslovak First League on 13 occasions and they lifted their fourth Czech First League in 2017. Despite winning the domestic trophy in the 2016/2017 season, Slavia Prague eventually failed to book their place in the Champions League group stages as they were beaten by APOEL of Cyprus in the play-offs. Sparta Prague are regarded as Slavia’s fiercest rivals and the two teams face each other in the Prague derby.
The club was founded on November 2, 1892 and it has to be noted that the club was initially focused on cycling. In March 1896 Slavia Prague recorded their first ever victory, with the team beating AC Prague 5-0. The Cervenobili play their home games at Eden Arena and the capacity of the venue is 19.084 (football). Slavia Prague are well known for their red and white shirts and white shorts.
