Union prepares for Gent clash after heavy Brugge loss
Union travel to Gent on Thursday, four days after a serious setback in Brugge. Coach David Hubert acknowledges that the championship is still mathematically attainable but the odds are now very low.
The defeat in Brugge was described as a serious blow and left the squad seeking a swift recovery. The loss came four days before the Gent fixture.
Hubert stresses that the final two matches are crucial for the team's morale. He wants the side to finish the season on a positive note.
He stated, "Mathematically the title is still possible, but the chance is so small that we no longer hope for it." He also added that the club is not counting on miracles.
The emphasis is on ending the campaign nicely rather than chasing an unlikely title. The coach's comments underline a pragmatic approach to the remaining games.
The upcoming encounter in Gent therefore represents a key opportunity for Union to restore confidence and assess the season's overall performance.
