Union Saint-Gilloise Defends Title as Anderlecht Challenges in 2026 Season

Union Saint-Gilloise secured the Belgian Pro League title in the 2024-25 season, ending a long wait for the club based in Saint-Gilles. The result places the side as defending champions heading into the new campaign alongside Anderlecht in the top flight.

Defending Champions Prepare for New Season

Union Saint-Gilloise enters the new Belgian Pro League season with the most recent success among Brussels clubs. The Saint-Gilles side now holds the league title won in the 2024-25 season and will defend that position against established competition. Local supporters in Saint-Gilles follow the team through its established presence in the capital region.

Historical Record Shapes Anderlecht Outlook

Anderlecht remains the club with the most league titles in Brussels history. The side competes alongside Union Saint-Gilloise in the Belgian Pro League, where both clubs represent the capital in the top division. This pairing continues a pattern of Brussels representation at the highest level of domestic football.

Second-Tier Clubs Maintain Regional Presence

RWDM Brussels and RSCA Futures compete in the Challenger Pro League for the Brussels Capital Region. RWDM Brussels, based in Molenbeek, operates as a revived club that last appeared in the top flight in recent years. These teams provide additional options for fans seeking matches within the region while the Pro League season unfolds.

The presence of two clubs in the Belgian Pro League and two more in the second tier gives Brussels residents multiple local sides to track through the schedule. Match information appears on established platforms that cover Belgian football fixtures. Supporters can consult official league resources and club channels for ticket access and fixture updates as the season progresses.
