Rangers started the season with high hopes of mounting a serious title challenge against Celtic. Given the strength of their squad, this ambition seemed realistic. However, a series of costly mistakes has all but ended their chances of lifting the trophy.
At the moment, Rangers sit second in the league, trailing Celtic by a considerable 10 points. Their recent 1-2 loss to Manchester United in the Europa League put an end to any hopes of finishing in the top eight of the group stage. Still, their place in the knockout rounds is nearly secured.
Union Saint-Gilloise has firmly established itself among Belgium’s elite, consistently competing on the European stage. Last season, they came agonizingly close to winning the league title but squandered a commanding lead in the final stretch, allowing Club Brugge to snatch the trophy. As a result, they had to settle for a Europa League campaign instead of the Champions League.
In this season’s Europa League, Union sits 15th in the overall standings with three wins, two draws, and two losses after seven rounds. They come into this match in strong form, having secured a 2-1 victory over Braga in their last outing—extending their Europa League winning streak to three matches. With that momentum, their spot in the knockout stage is nearly locked in.
