Antwerp host Union St. Gilloise at the Bosuilstadion on Sunday, 20 September 2026, with kick-off at 11:30 UTC in the seventh round of the Jupiler Pro League Regular Season. The two sides are separated by nine points in the table, with the visiting side sitting third and Antwerp placed twelfth in an 18-team competition.
Antwerp come into the match in difficult form, having lost their last three matches in a row. The home side have taken just four points from their last five matches, with that sequence including defeats to Club Brugge KV, Standard Liege and St. Truiden. Across six matches this season they have won two, drawn one and lost three, accumulating seven points with a goals record of 11 scored and 13 conceded.
Union St. Gilloise present a stark contrast. They are unbeaten through six Jupiler Pro League matches, winning five and drawing one, and have collected 16 points. Their goals record stands at 19 scored and just three conceded. The visitors have won their last five matches in succession, taking 15 points from those five outings. That run includes wins over Anderlecht, St. Truiden, Charleroi, Lommel United and Plzen.
The recent head-to-head record offers little encouragement for the home side. When the two clubs met on 21 February 2026, Union St. Gilloise won 2-1. The earlier meeting, on 25 July 2025, ended 1-1 at Antwerp's ground.
With Antwerp in the middle of the table and Union St. Gilloise firmly in the top third, the gap in the standings tells its own story heading into Sunday's Jupiler Pro League fixture.
