Royale Union SG will face Bayer Leverkusen in Quarter-final 2nd leg of the 2022/2023 Europa League which can be watched via live streaming on CBS Sports, Univision on Thursday, April 20 2023, ET.
Royale Union Saint-Gilloise and Bayer Leverkusen are evenly matched as they face each other in the second leg of the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals at Lotto Park on Thursday. The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw at BayArena last week, with Victor Boniface scoring for Union Saint-Gilloise in the 51st minute and Florian Wirtz equalizing for Leverkusen in the 82nd minute.
Both teams have been impressive in attack, scoring in every Europa League game this season. Union SG have not failed to score in their last three games in the competition. Leverkusen have won both of their away games in the competition this season. They are unbeaten in their last seven away games in all competitions.
Union SG’s manager Karel Geraerts thinks his team have demonstrated the level they need to reach to make it to the semi-finals of a European competition for the first time in over 60 years. He said “we will need the same attitude” to have a chance of going through. It would be a massive shock if ‘Les Unionistes’ were to triumph, but they are confident after extending their unbeaten streak to nine games with a 2-1 win over Seraing at the weekend.
They have also been very strong at Joseph Marien Stadium, where they have won 12 of their last 13 games, scoring an impressive 30 goals along the way! Boniface is the joint top scorer of the Europa League in 2022/2023 with six goals, including two that opened the scoring for Union Saint-Gilloise. He has not lost in his six games where he scored in the UEL, with both teams scoring in each of those games.
Leverkusen’s manager Xabi Alonso will want his team to repeat their performance from the previous round, where they advanced to the quarter-finals despite not winning the first leg at home against Monaco. He said “everything is very open” after a close first leg against Royale Union SG. Leverkusen fans of a certain age may know that their team have never lost to a Belgian team in a European competition.
They also have a good record in all competitions, having won eight and drawn three of their last 11 games. Wirtz has scored three times for Leverkusen in the competition, also with one goal that gave them the lead. He may be trying to outdo Moussa Diaby, who has scored 11 times in just 25 UEL games.
This match promises to be an exciting and high-scoring affair, as both teams have shown their attacking prowess and resilience in the Europa League. Neither team will want to miss out on the opportunity to reach the semi-finals of a European competition, so expect a thrilling encounter at Lotto Park on Thursday.
