The Doosan Arena will be ready for another European battle when Plzen take on St. Gilloise in the Europa League round 1. Plzen are looking to make amends after a 3-2 defeat to Sigma Olomouc, although they showed great character in the playoffs by overturning a three-goal deficit against Crvena Zvezda. Jemelka, Spacil, Vydra and Paluska remain injured, while Denis Vavro returns from a domestic suspension. Plzen have scored 2.17 goals per game at home, but their last 10 home matches have seen an average of four goals.
St. Gilloise, meanwhile, travel to Czech Republic in splendid form, having won four consecutive Jupiler League matches, including a remarkable 5-0 demolition of Lommel. Royale Union have won 60% of their last 10 games and are averaging 2.70 goals per match, with their away fixtures producing an impressive 4.20 goals on average. Kevin Mac Allister is doubtful after picking up a knock at the weekend. Union have also scored in every away match in this sample.
As St. Gilloise look unstoppable at the moment, our main prediction firmly points toward Away Win, alongside St. Gilloise Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals total (both teams are involved in high-scoring matches).
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 17 September 2026 at 20:00.
