The Red Devils will be looking to pull off an upset.
Belgium will be looking to pull off one of the tournament’s biggest surprises against Spain. While Rudi Garcia has the majority of his team decided, two critical selection decisions remain unsettled.
Belgium eliminated the United States from the FIFA World Cup 2026. Their reward is a match against a Spain team that started the tournament as favourites to win it all.
Belgium will face a Spanish squad that has yet to surrender a goal in the competition. With no serious injury or suspension issues, Garcia has most of his starting lineup in place, with only two slots up for grabs.
