Slavia Prague vs Union Saint Gilloise Predictions

• Slavia are on a ten match unbeaten streak stretching into last season
• Union are also undefeated across their last ten
• This is the first competitive meeting between the two sides

Slavia can make home advantage count in first leg

Two in-form sides go head-to-head in the Champions League qualification stages and Slavia Prague will be hoping that their own fans can be the difference when they host Royal Union Saint-Gilloise on Wednesday.

The Sesivani are currently on a seven match unbeaten run at the Fortuna Arena – winning six – and they are yet to concede a goal from their opening three league matches this season, including a comfortable 4-0 victory over Ceske Budejovice in their sole home fixture so far.

Union have also started their season well with silverware already secured in the trophy cabinet – a 2-1 victory over Club Brugge in the Belgian Super Cup – however they have not always shown their strengths when on the road, winning just two of their last seven away fixtures reaching into last season.

This stuttering away form could be key in deciding the victor of this first leg and Slavia Prague could make home advantage count in a tight affair in Czechia. With four consecutive clean sheets kept at home across this and last season, a win to nil could be in store and a 1-0 final score looks a tempting proposition.
