Royale Union SG vs Antwerp Prediction & Betting Tips (9 May)

Sporadic within the rotation, Leysen (only 4 short matches played this season in the Jupiler League) returned from injury in the league recently (nailed on the bench). It was ultimately the only major absence to be reported among the locals who will therefore be in full force for this final. The major elements of the season on the USG side are called Amoura (Algerian international, 18 goals, 3 assists), the Swedish international Nilsson (14 goals, 4 assists), without forgetting Puertas (11 pawns, 15 caviars) or even the German striker Ayensa (8 pawns). Opposite, three players are likely to be missing for the match of the year.

In this case, the starting goalkeeper Butez (broken hand), the Belgian U19 international Corbanie and finally Engels (absent for ages). For the rest, the group should be complete with important elements like Vincent Janssen (11 goals, 5 assists in the Jupiler League), the former Amiens Ilenikhena (8 goals), without forgetting Balikwisha (6 goals, 5 assists) or again Jurgen Ekkelenkamp (5 goals), Swedish international Ondrejka (5 goals) and Ejuke (4 goals, 4 goals).

When Antwerp come calling, excitement doesn’t tend to follow, with six of their previous seven away games at the top table of the Belgian Cup seeing at least one of the two goalkeepers emerge with a clean sheet. What’s more, eight of the last nine Royale Union SG home matches at this level, including six in a row recently, have followed the same pattern.
