Belgium line up in a 4-3-3 against Tunisia's 4-2-3-1, with Kevin De Bruyne operating as the creative fulcrum behind a front three that carries genuine pace and invention. The shape invites Belgium to dominate possession centrally, with Amadou Onana providing the defensive platform for De Bruyne and Tielemans to push forward.
Tunisia's double pivot of Skhiri and Hadj Mahmoud will be tasked with disrupting that midfield rhythm, while Ismaël Gharbi operates in the space behind the striker, looking to exploit any gaps on the transition. This friendly offers the Carthage Eagles a chance to test their defensive organisation against one of Europe's more technically accomplished attacking units.
Our Verdict
Belgium's home win at 1.33 looks the standout selection. The Red Devils boast two victories from two previous meetings with Tunisia, scoring six goals across those fixtures, and their current 12-match unbeaten run, featuring wins over the United States and Croatia, reinforces their superiority. Tunisia's narrow defeat to Austria exposed fragility under Sabri Lamouchi's still-evolving system. With Rudi Garcia's side fine-tuning World Cup preparations, expect a controlled, professional performance. Over 2.5 goals at N/A also appeals given the historical scorelines between these sides. Odds and markets subject to change.
