Jupiler Pro League: Eupen vs Union Saint-Gilloise
These are two sides at opposite ends of the table. Eupen are just five points off the bottom and have not won since October. In fact, they have lost nine, drawn two, and won once in their previous 12 matches. They have also struggled at home of late, losing three of their last four, including a defeat against second-division Oostende in the Cup.
In complete contrast, Union arrive off the back of five consecutive wins having not lost a league game since September. They have been just as strong on the road as at home – St. Gilloise are unbeaten in away games since August. The league leaders will be brimming with confidence ahead of this one. Just last week they beat Liverpool 2-1 in the Europa League, before easing to a 1-0 victory against KV Mechelen.
