Inter Milan will take on Royale Union SG in a must-win Champions League clash at Lotto Park later this evening.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, tonight’s game comes at an opportune moment for the Belgian side.
Royale Union SG underwent a managerial change during the international break.
Indeed, the 37-year-old David Hubert replaced Sebastien Pocognoli in the dugout as the latter left for Monaco.
Furthermore, the young coach enjoyed a dream debut in the Jupiler Pro League, guiding his side to a 3-1 home win over Charleroi.
Saturday’s victory saw Union SG bounce back from consecutive defeats in all competitions and steer three points clear of Club Brugge in the domestic championship.
However, it’s worth noting that the Belgian club slumped to a dreadful 4-0 defeat to Newcastle United in their last European outing.
Avoiding another catastrophe will be Hubert’s priority, with Union SG gearing up for only their second clash against Italian opposition.
Interestingly, Les Unionistes fans have chosen the famous ‘Vamos a la playa’ song as the club’s anthem.
The song was quite popular in Italy in the 1980s.
