Team News

Belgium
Slovakia
  • With no Thibaut Courtois in the squad, Koen Casteels is expected to get the nod between the sticks.
  • Defensive trio Arthur Theate, Jan Vertonghen and Thomas Muenier are all doubts, though only the latter may recover in time.
  • Centre-back Denis Vavro is a doubt for Slovakia ahead of their first game of Euro 2024.
  • Francesco Calzona is unlikely to spring any surprises for this one.

Prediction

  • Belgium's squad isn't of the same quality as their Golden Generation but there is still plenty of attacking talent in the squad to hurt opponents. The Red Devils haven't lost a game since a 2-0 defeat to Morocco at the 2022 World Cup.
  • Slovakia are the weakest side in Group E but do have plenty of European experience in the squad. They eased to victory over San Marino and Wales in the build up to Euro 2024 and might cause this sub-par Belgium backline problems.
  • Belgium are far and away the superior side and they should claim victory in their opening Group E game.

    I prefer Var system from EPL, his images and cameras are much much clearer. I could not distinguished the offside from Lukaku, cameras did not show it clearly.
