Match Facts
Union Saint-Gilloise are unbeaten in both previous meetings with Braga, winning 2-1 away and drawing 3-3 at home in the 2022-23 UEFA Europa League group stage.
Since winning their first ever meeting with Belgian opponents in the 2008-09 UEFA Cup (3-0 vs Standard Liège), Sporting Braga are winless in their last seven against such sides (D5 L2).
Union Saint-Gilloise have won their last two UEFA Europa League games, last winning three in a row in September/October 2022.
Sporting Braga are without a clean sheet in any of their last 10 away major European games, shipping three goals in five of those 10 games and conceding 23 overall.
Union Saint-Gilloise’s Franjo Ivanovic netted both of their goals in the 2-1 win over Nice on MD6 – he was the youngest Croatian (21 years, 72 days) to score twice in a major European game since Marko Pjaca in December 2014 for Dinamo Zagreb against Celtic (19 years, 219 days, a hat-trick).
