Team News

Belgium
Italy
  • Charles De Ketelaere and Joaquin Seys are injured, while Kevin De Bruyne and Youri Tielemans haven't been called up to the squad.
  • Romelu Lukaku returns and should lead the XI.
  • Samuele Ricci is injured, with Nicolo Barella and Manuel Locatelli battling to deputise in the middle of the park.

Prediction

  • Belgium have struggled in their UEFA Nations League campaign and while they are unlikely to be relegated to League B, they also can't finish higher than second and Domenico Tedesco may use this break as a chance to rotate his squad.
  • Conversely, Italy top Group 2 by a single point, and have only dropped points once in their campaign, that coming against Belgium after being reduced to 10 men.
  • The Azzurri should make no mistake in securing all the spoils in Brussels this week.

  • I don't believe this lineup can break Italian defense.

  • @Ewerfekt Missing a few guys though, no Calafiori is a big miss

  • @KingKeno If there's one are Italy is stacked, it's defense. They have like 2-3 guys who can replace Calafiori like it's no problem.

  • BTTS

  • DRAW

  • Lukaku +225 / Retegui +260 TSA
