Command Analysis

Before the start of the season, Antwerp was considered a clear contender for a place in the top six – the selection of players allowed them to set the goal of breaking into European competitions. So far, Jonas de Reck's team has no particular problems achieving their goal – the Reds occupy fourth place in the table with 32 points and are only one point behind third-placed Anderlecht, but Union and Gent are seriously pressing from below.

3.35Tip and bets
Antwerp will certainly be determined to get to the semi-finals today – the hosts are approaching the match in excellent shape. Traditionally, the Reds play open attacking football, especially on their home field, and today they are unlikely to change their style, Union is far from ideal in defense. At the same time, the Unionists clearly have their own views on a ticket to the semi-finals, they also show open football and have no problems with implementation – the match will certainly be bright and productive.
We believe that the match will be productive. Betting Tip - total over three goals . This bet is offered with odds of 2.39
