Preview

Match preview

Union St. Gilloise welcome Brussels rivals Anderlecht to the Stade Joseph Marien for matchday four of the Jupiler Pro League campaign. The hosts enter this encounter unbeaten in domestic play with four points from their opening two matches, highlighted by a dominant 5-1 away victory over KVC Westerlo and a goalless draw against Zulte Waregem.

Anderlecht have collected three points from their opening two league fixtures, bouncing back from a 1-0 defeat away at SK Beveren with a 2-1 victory over RAAL La Louvière. While they have enjoyed positive continental outings recently, their domestic away form remains tested heading into one of the league's toughest venues.

Historical head-to-head records heavily favour Union St. Gilloise, who have won seven of the last ten meetings across all competitions while remaining unbeaten at home against Anderlecht in that span (four wins, two draws). With Union having scored five goals in their previous meeting with Anderlecht in May 2026, the hosts hold a psychological advantage.
