Belgian champions Union Saint-Gilloise continue their Champions League campaign with a tough-looking home match against Inter Milan later this evening.
Inter reached last season’s final, only to be beaten 5-0 by Paris Saint-Germain in Munich.
But the Serie A side remain a force to be reckoned with, and it will take something special from USG to deliver a second European victory in 2025-26.

Union Saint-Gilloise vs Inter Milan Preview
After a 3-1 win at PSV Eindhoven on Matchday 1, USG had a really tough time of it before the international break.
The side from Brussels lost 4-0 at home to Newcastle in this competition, and then suffered a 1-0 defeat at Club Brugge in the Jupiler Pro League.
It was USG’s first top-flight defeat of the campaign, but David Hubert’s side bounced back on the weekend to beat Charleroi 3-1, preserving their place at the top of the Pro League in the process.
Key Austrian winger Raul Florucz returned to scoring ways in that match, too, which is another welcome boost ahead of Inter’s visit.
The Serie A side are two wins from two matches in the Champions League, beating Ajax 2-0 away from home and then Slavia Praha 3-0 at San Siro.
Cristian Chivu’s side look a well-oiled machine in European competition, with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram both scoring twice.
However, Thuram will miss this match through injury, though Chivu can call on a fantastic replacement option in Ange-Yoan Bonny, who netted the only goal in Inter’s crucial 1-0 win at AS Roma on the weekend.
The Nerazzurri have now won six matches in a row since losing 4-3 at Juventus back in September, a positive run of form which will be of serious concern to USG and new manager Hubert.
Union Saint-Gilloise vs Inter Milan Odds
*All odds are subject to change
It will come as no surprise to learn that USG are significant underdogs here, priced at 4.60 to claim the win. A victory for Inter is at odds of 1.74, while the draw is 3.86.
Union Saint-Gilloise vs Inter Milan Betting Tips
Anytime goalscorer – Lautaro Martinez @ 2.20
With Thuram absent, Inter skipper Martinez will resume his role as focal point of the attack – and backing him to score in the Champions League always feels like a wise move. The Argentine has 23 goals from 59 appearances in this competition, netting nine times in 14 appearances last season.
Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.76
The loss to Newcastle was something of an anomaly, in the fact that USG failed to score. The Belgian champions last failed to score at home in a domestic match way back in April, and they are the leading scorers in the Pro League this season with 22 goals. So the BTTS market here looks like a solid option.
