Belgium welcome England to Brussels on Sunday evening for an intriguing UEFA Nations League Group A2 clash - the first time England have played in Brussels for 50 years.
Roberto Martinez’s Belgium side currently top Group A2 with nine points. If they can beat England, and Denmark fail to win against Iceland, the Red Devils will open up an insurmountable lead at the top of the group. They are in formidable form too, having won their last 10 competitive home games, scoring 46 goals in the process. Martinez has asserted that these Nations League games are the perfect chance for him to assess players before he picks his Euro 2021 squad.
Gareth Southgate’s England are currently sitting in third place in the group, level with second-placed Denmark on seven points but with a slightly worse goal difference than the Scandinavians. The English defence has certainly been solid in recent matches. They have won their last four away competitive games without conceding a single goal.
England have enjoyed some success against Martinez’s men in recent times, having won 2-1 at Wembley last month. But the English also endured being beaten by Belgium in the third place play-off game at World Cup 2018. This is the seventh meeting in competitive fixtures between the sides who have two wins each in the series, with two draws. If you think that this game will end tied, then Betway are offering odds of 100/30 on the game being a draw where both teams score.
Our featured tip for this game comes from Betway, who are offering odds of 7/2 on Belgium to win and both teams to score. We think that England’s unfamiliarity with Brussels hands the home side an advantage, despite England’s recent fine away record.
