Predictions & Tips
Form Guide
Gent
DLLDD
The Buffalo's from Ghent have had a solid but not dominant Champions' Play-off run. Their 1-1 draw with St. Truiden over the last weekend has now extended their winless streak to five straight games. They're yet to secure a victory at full-time in this congested phase with five stalemates and three defeats from their eight encounters thus far AT the Ghelamco Arena, one of Belgian football's most modern and impressive stadiums with 20,000 capacity, they carry genuine home advantage and a fanbase that generates excellent atmosphere for European-stakes encounters.
Royale Union SG
DWLWL
Karel Geraerts' Union, Belgian Cup holders and title defenders, arrive this Ghent encounter in outstanding playoff form. Their 3-0 demolition of Mechelen on May 10 and their earlier 3-1 win over Anderlecht on April 26 reflects a side operating at the peak of their collective powers. Away at the Ghelamco, they carry the winning mentality of defending champions who have made their compact Marien ground nearly unbeatable throughout this campaign but perform equally well away from their south-Brussels home.
Prediction
Union's superior playoff form and their defending champions' quality gives them the edge as narrow away favourites.
