Union Saint-Gilloise have been a positive start to the league phase, opening with an impressive 3-0 away victory over Viktoria Plzeň before earning a creditable 1-1 draw against La Liga side Real Sociedad on home soil. With four points already secured, the Belgian outfit will view their meeting with Hapoel Be’er Sheva as an opportunity to strengthen their position, particularly against a side that has collected just one point and suffered defeat in its most recent Europa League away fixture.

Trabzonspor come into this encounter in impressive form, having won their last four matches consecutively. Mohamed Salah has been instrumental during this run, scoring five goals, including a hat-trick against Galatasaray. Their recent results provide a solid foundation for confidence heading into this European fixture. Hearts, by contrast, have struggled to maintain consistency, recording just one victory in their last five matches across all competitions.

Juventus are expected to rely on their disciplined positional play, defensive organisation and use of the wide areas to create attacking opportunities. However, conceding three goals at home to Lazio will be a concern for a side usually recognised for its defensive strength, and Luciano Spalletti will expect a more convincing response. Rennes typically favour an energetic approach, using quick transitions to exploit spaces behind the opposition. Against a well-organised Juventus side, however, this approach could leave gaps for the hosts to exploit, particularly when possession changes hands.
