Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Union SG and Mechelen will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Sébastien Pocognoli or Besnik Hasi has served up too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.22 equating to about a 79% probability.

Goal Statistics

Union Saint Gilloise have been reliable in attack of late, finding the net in 8 consecutive Pro League games. Their PG of 1.9 against Mechelen on Sunday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Union Saint Gilloise's defensive record is to be admired, S. Pocognoli's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive Pro League outings. An average PG rating of 1.0 for Mechelen makes sense in this context.
