- Venue: Bosuilstadion (Antwerp)
Last season, Antwerp won its first title in 66 years. Still, it will not repeat that success, as Mark van Bommel's side is currently nine points behind the league leader, Anderlecht. Antwerp had a terrible start to the Championship group with three losses in a row, but in the previous round, they finally won (1-0 on the road against Cercle Brugge). Maybe that win will shake things up in Antwerp, so maybe it is not too late to fight, at least for the Conference League spot.
Royale Union SG finished the first part of the season with only two defeats and the first position on the table. Still, in four rounds of the Championship group, Alexander Blessin's team stayed with four defeats, so Royale Union SG are currently three points behind the league leader. Six more rounds are left until the season ends, so there is more than enough time for Royale Union SG to get involved in the title race, but they have to start winning. In the previous game, Blessin's team lost 2-1 at home against Club Brugge.
Antwerp vs Royale Union SG pick: Under 2.5 goals
Antwerp scored only three goals in the last six matches. Also, five of those six games went under 2.5 goals. On the other hand, Royale Union SG scored seven goals in the previous eight games. We shouldn't expect more than two goals on Thursday at Bosuilstadion in Antwerp.

Royale Union SG team news
Royale Union SG still believes that the title race is far from over. After another loss, he said, "There are still 18 points to be earned. A lot can still happen. We should not feel sorry for ourselves. We will not get help from anyone, from the referee or anyone else."
In the game against Antwerp, Royale Union SG could be without Fedde Leysen, whose status is currently unclear.
