One of Wednesday's early kick-offs in the UEFA Champions League involves a trip to Belgium for Newcastle, who came oh so close to taking points from Arsenal at the weekend, only to be downed very late on. Now up against Union SG, the visitors will be looking for just their third competitive win of the season. Getting the job done on Belgian shores will not be easy, though.
Let's face it, the hosts played some excellent soccer during UCL matchday one, beating PSV away from home, scoring three goals in the process. Since then, they've won two out of two in the league and will likely be feeling super confident ahead of this game in front of what should be rowdy home crowd at Lotto Park, which is their temporary continental home this season.

Our Union Saint-Gilloise vs Newcastle Prediction
I really don't think we should be surprised if the Belgian hosts cause an out-of-form Newcastle team a few problems here. Sure, the visitors have the overall strength in depth to get the job done, while they deserve to be favorites in the early betting, but the hosts can certainly play their part here, especially in the final third.
Forward Kevin Rodriguez will be a clear threat on the break, while he's a man in form, so betting on the Ecuadorian, who has taken ten shots in his lasy four appearances for club and country, to find the net looks like a decent move at odds of +285. Our Union SG vs Newcastle Pick: Kevin Rodriguez to Score.
