A fascinating Group E in the Europa League continues on Thursday, as the two sides that are yet to pick up a victory in the tournament to this point lock horns. Union Saint-Gilloise will be the narrow favourites in the betting to land maximum points at Lotto Park against LASK.
Union Saint-Gilloise enjoyed a stunning run to the latter stages in Europe last term, but they are yet to hit the same heights in terms of their performance so far this term. The Belgian side come into this match sitting third in Group E after picking up just a single point from their opening two matches in the Europa League this season.
LASK will have heightened pressure on their shoulders this week, as they currently sit bottom of the standings after suffering defeats against Liverpool and Toulouse across their opening two matches in the group. Defensively, they will need to improve after allowing four goals in their matches to this point.
Union were in excellent form in the Europa League last season, as they landed victories in four of their first five matches in the competition. However, that record has switched since the end of the group stage last term, as they have now landed victory in just one of their previous seven in the competition. Over that period, they have been held to three draws.
LASK have already disappointed in the competition this term by losing each of their opening two matches. That is as many defeats as they had suffered in their previous 16 matches in the group stage of all European competitions. They will need to improve in the final third after attempting a Europa League-low of three shots to this point.
This will be a first meeting between these sides on Thursday. It will also be the first time that Union will come up against an Austrian rival. However, LASK have suffered defeats in three of their previous four against sides from Belgium.
Union will need to bounce back after a disappointing start to the Europa League this term. However, they continue to boast excellent quality across the field, and that could prove to be the difference maker between these sides on Thursday. Therefore, the preference is for the hosts in Group E.
