✍️ Match Preview
Analysis
Union St. Gilloise make the trip to Daio Wasabi Stayen to face St. Truiden in Jupiler Pro League (matchday 30). The match kicks off on Sunday 22 March 2026 at 17:30 UK time.
Form
St. Truiden (all games): 7W 0D 3L across their last 10 — 2.10 PPG. Last five: W W L W L. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 1.00 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).
St. Truiden's form when playing at home: 7W 1D 2L across their last 10 home games (2.20 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Union St. Gilloise's record over their last 10 games: 6W 4D 0L (2.20 PPG). Last five: D W D W W. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 0.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Defensively, 0.50 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not.
On the road, Union St. Gilloise have gone 2W 6D 2L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.20 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 1.20 is notably below their overall 2.20 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
A near-identical PPG reading — 2.10 for St. Truiden, 2.20 for Union St. Gilloise — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
H2H History
The head-to-head sample leans to Union St. Gilloise, who have 5 wins from 6 H2H matches compared to 0 for the hosts, with 1 draw.
The 6 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.5 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 26 Oct 2025, ended St. Truiden 0–2 Union St. Gilloise — a Union St. Gilloise win.
Union St. Gilloise have the better head-to-head record despite being the visitors — 5 wins from 6 H2H matches. Home advantage alone is not a reason to dismiss that.
Trading & In-Play
St. Truiden — key trading statistics (last 65 games, 32 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 88% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 92% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 58% of those occasions; of the 22 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 36%; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (home games).
Union St. Gilloise — key trading statistics (last 65 games, 32 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 62% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 55% of the time; they lead at the break 51% of the time; of the 6 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 67%; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 34% of games (away games); they keep a clean sheet 49% of the time.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — St. Truiden 65% versus Union St. Gilloise 45%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (St. Truiden 60% | Union St. Gilloise 43%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects St. Truiden 1.07 xG and Union St. Gilloise 0.95 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: St. Truiden attack 1.101 / defence 0.954 | Union St. Gilloise attack 0.782 / defence 0.760. League average goals — home 1.280 / away 1.274. Union St. Gilloise bring a tight defence (rating 0.760, below 1 = concedes less than average) — this is pulling St. Truiden's projected output down. Union St. Gilloise's attack rating of 0.782 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 0.95. Data: built from St. Truiden's last 59 games and Union St. Gilloise's last 59.
Result probabilities: St. Truiden 38% | Draw 31% | Union St. Gilloise 32%. Fair-value odds: St. Truiden 2.64 | Draw 3.27 | Union St. Gilloise 3.17. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 33% | BTTS Yes probability 40% | Total xG 2.02. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 67% probability — total xG of 2.02 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 60% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates St. Truiden as the most likely outcome at 38% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 31% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on St. Truiden if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.02 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 67% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (St. Truiden's last 10 home games and Union St. Gilloise's last 10 away games) averaging 2.2 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 60% on No. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: St. Truiden 50% (last 10 home games) | Union St. Gilloise 60% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Union St. Gilloise beat St. Truiden 1-3 at Daio Wasabi Stayen, Regular Season - 30, in the Jupiler Pro League. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting St. Truiden 1.07 xG and Union St. Gilloise 0.95 xG, a combined 2.02. The scoreboard read 1-3 for 4 actual goals. Union St. Gilloise outscored their 0.95 projection by 2.0. Those figures were built on strength ratings of St. Truiden attack 1.10 / defence 0.95 against Union St. Gilloise attack 0.78 / defence 0.76, drawn from 59/59 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it St. Truiden 38% | Draw 31% | Union St. Gilloise 32%, with St. Truiden to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual Union St. Gilloise win had been the model's second-ranked read at 32%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 33%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 60% and landed. Over 3.5 was 15% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 40% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 52% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (St. Truiden 60%, Union St. Gilloise 43%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
St. Truiden's trading profile (65 games, 32 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 65% of their matches — today it did.
Union St. Gilloise's trading profile (65 games, 32 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 45% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 49% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
On form, Union St. Gilloise arrived the stronger side — 2.14 PPG against 1.51. Form held, and they took the win. St. Truiden (home/away splits) shipped 3 against a 1.34 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Union St. Gilloise (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.34 average — above their attacking norm.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (hit). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
