Union Saint-Gilloise embarks on its latest European journey, returning to the exhilarating atmosphere of the Champions League. To advance to the play-off stage of this elite continental competition, the Brussels-based squad must overcome the formidable challenge presented by Bodø/Glimt in the third preliminary round.
Having experienced the Champions League last season, the Unionists harbor ambitions of once again reaching the pinnacle of European football. However, this mission will be a significant test against the Norwegian side, who emerged as a true revelation in the last European campaign, notably reaching the round of 16 in the 2025-2026 Champions League.
The crucial first leg will unfold on Belgian soil, where Union Saint-Gilloise aims to establish a strong advantage before undertaking a particularly demanding trip to Northern Norway. Beyond the Arctic Circle, in conditions and an atmosphere that are often unique, the Saint-Gillois players understand that a substantial portion of their European aspirations could well be decided in this initial encounter.
Fans can follow this exciting two-legged confrontation live on RTL club and RTL play. The first leg is scheduled for Tuesday, August 4th, starting at 7:45 PM, featuring commentary from Vincenzo Ciuro and Silvio Proto, with Anne Ruwet providing pitch-side interviews.
The return leg will be broadcast on Tuesday, August 11th, commencing at 5:55 PM, also available on RTL club and RTL play.
