Belgium XI vs Wales – Predicted lineup and team news
Belgium Team News
Rudi Garcia’s side enter this match without any new injury issues, but the squad is likely feeling frustrated after their recent 0-0 draw against North Macedonia, which has left them sitting second in the group.
Garcia may opt to tweak the starting lineup, especially in attack, after missing several chances against North Macedonia. Lois Openda or Mitchy Batshuayi could be given the chance to lead the line in the absence of the injured Romelu Lukaku. Belgium lined up without a recognised forward against North Macedonia with Leandro Trossard deployed furthest forward. Meanwhile, Charles De Ketelaere continues to be sidelined with injury.
Despite dominating possession and taking 25 shots to just three by their opponents, Belgium couldn’t break the deadlock against North Macedonia on Friday. This marked the first time in seven matches that the Red Devils have failed to score.
Belgium’s recent form on the road has been less than stellar, managing only one win in their last 10 away fixtures. This statistic could play a significant role as they travel to face a determined Welsh team eager to claim points at home.
Belgium Predicted Lineup
Possible Belgium starting XI: Courtois; Castagne, Debast, Theate, De Cuyper; Raskin, Onana; Saelemaekers, De Bruyne, Doku; Openda.
When will the match kick off?
The match will kick off at 7:45pm BST on Monday 13th October.
