Match Facts
FC Midtjylland lost their first ever two games against Belgian opposition back in 2002 but are unbeaten in their two since (W1 D1), winning four points from Club Brugge in the 2015-16 UEFA Europa League group stage.
Belgian teams have won 11 of their previous 16 trips to face Danish opposition in major European competition (D2 L3) with the most recent of those coming in November 2022 when Anderlecht beat Silkeborg IF in the UEFA Conference League.
FC Midtjylland won 2-0 at Maccabi Tel Aviv last time out – only twice before have they won consecutive matches in the UEFA Europa League, doing so in October 2015 and November 2021.
Since winning their first three UEFA Europa League away games in the 2022-23 campaign, Union Saint-Gilloise are now winless in their last six on the road (D3 L3).
No player has had more shots in the UEFA Europa League this season than Union Saint-Gilloise duo Kevin Rodríguez and Franjo Ivanovic (9). However, neither player has found the net so far this term.
