In the quarter-finals of the Belgian Cup which are scheduled for this week Antwerp is facing Union St. Gilloise. The hosts enter in this match as slight underdogs. With one win in their last six games Antwerp are not bursting with confidence in the league either and they have not managed to keep a clean for more than two months. The team manage to eliminate with penalties Kortrijk in the previous round. The home advantage could be decisive. Antwerp recently reached the cup final twice in a row so it's clear that they're aiming to extend this short series. Union's current form could definitely be better. In the league, they are eleven points behind the leaders, seven wins in 20 rounds are of course far too few but they have only lost three times. St. Gilloise loves draws like no other team, having shared the points ten times, which is exactly half of their games. With 18 goals conceded it is definitely worth mentioning that they have the best defense together with Anderlecht.
