Belgian champions Union Saint-Gilloise continue their Champions League campaign with a tricky trip to Galatasaray.
The Turkish side are renowned for producing among the most hostile atmospheres in world football, particularly for games on one of Europe’s biggest sporting stages.
Can USG cope with Gala’s intensity and the fiery Istanbul welcome? We will soon find out, and here is our full sports betting online preview for this League Phase clash, complete with tips based on the latest football odds.
Galatasaray vs Union Saint-Gilloise Preview
Gala have been one of the surprise packages in this season’s Champions League.
The Super Lig side lost their first match in dramatic fashion, suffering a 5-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt.
But to say they have responded well would be something of an understatement. Gala are on a run of three consecutive wins in Europe, beating Liverpool (1-0), Bodo/Glimt (3-1) and Ajax (0-3).
Victor Osimhen has also been an inspirational figure in the 2025-26 Champions League. The Nigerian striker currently leads the goalscorer standings with six strikes, more than Erling Haaland, Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe!
So it is easy to understand why Gala – the current Super Lig leaders with 10 wins from 13 matches – are the big favourites here.
Since beating PSV Eindhoven on Matchday 1, USG have suffered three straight defeats in the Champions League to Newcastle (0-4), Inter Milan (0-4) and Atletico Madrid (3-1).
Of course, that is a tricky run of fixtures for any side, and David Hubert’s men have fortunately not let those defeats impact their domestic form.
USG are top of the Jupiler Pro League once again with 11 wins from 15 matches, and enter this European contest on the back of a crucial 2-0 victory over Cercle Brugge.
The onus is on Hubert’s side to try and transfer their domestic form onto the European side of things!
Galatasaray vs Union Saint-Gilloise Odds
*All odds are subject to change
Galatasaray are huge favourites for the win here at a price of 1.74. A USG victory is at odds of 4.33, while the draw is 4.10.
Galatasaray vs Union Saint-Gilloise Betting Tips
Anytime goalscorer – Victor Osimhen @ 1.80
As previously mentioned, Osimhen is the Champions League’s top scorer, and looks close to unstoppable in front of goal right now. Wagering on him to strike in this game feels like a pretty safe bet.
To assist a goal – Leroy Sane @ 3.30
And one player who could help Osimhen find the back of the net is ex-Manchester City and Bayern Munich winger, Sane. The German has tallied two assists in three Champions League appearances this season, and his speed could prove to be a real thorn in USG’s side – especially if the visitors are made to chase the game.
Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.51
Gala have conceded at least once in three of their last four home matches across all competitions. Furthermore, USG have scored in seven of their previous eight matches, so the BTTS selection looks a great option for a combo bet.
