Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, commonly referred to as Union Saint-Gilloise and abbreviated as RUSG, is a Belgian professional football club originally located in the municipality of Saint-Gilles, in Brussels, although since the 1920s, it has been based at the Joseph Marien Stadium in the neighbouring municipality of Forest.
The club is one of the most successful in the history of Belgian football. The club won eleven Belgian championships between 1904 and 1935, making it the most successful Belgian club before World War II, but fell into decline after relegation from the First Division in 1973. The Apaches took part in the first European competitions, the Challenge International du Nord, the Coupe Van der Straeten Ponthoz and the Coupe Jean Dupuich between 1898 and 1925. The team colours are blue and yellow and its matricule is 10. The team was traditionally popular with the working-class communities of central Brussels and southern Brussels.
On 13 March 2021, after defeating local rivals R.W.D. Molenbeek, Union were promoted back to the Belgian First Division A, marking their first appearance in top-flight football in 48 years.
