REF’s picks

Union Saint-Gilloise hold a clear upper hand at home against an inconsistent Hapoel Be'er Sheva side that struggles on the road in Europe. Despite several injury absentees, the Belgian hosts possess far more tactical cohesion and firepower than their visitors.

1. 1Union SG have started the European campaign strongly with four points from two matches and solid domestic form.
2. 2Hapoel Be'er Sheva fell 2-1 away to AZ Alkmaar recently and lack consistent punch on their travels.
3. 3Injuries to key personnel like Kevin Rodríguez and Adem Zorgane could occasionally disrupt the hosts' rhythm.
