KVC Westerlo and Union St. Gilloise clash in the early stages of the Pro League season with both clubs desperate to climb out of the bottom three after opening the campaign in the relegation zone.
KVC Westerlo enter this fixture sitting 14th on 0 points, looking to arrest a poor run of form that has seen them winless in their last five matches (D2, L3). Issame Charai’s side is under pressure to improve on last season's ninth-place finish, particularly after a disappointing qualification round where they lost three of their final four games.
Union St. Gilloise find themselves in the unusual position of 16th place with 0 points. Despite their league standing, they have shown flashes of quality in pre-season and European competition, notably a 2-1 win over Lille and a 3-3 draw with Bodo/Glimt. However, a heavy 7-3 defeat to PSV Eindhoven exposed significant defensive gaps that need addressing.
