The Red Devils are on a five-match losing run against Les Bleus!
The Belgium national football team will be looking to take on the France national football team for their second group stage outing of the UEFA Nations League 2026-27 campaign. This clash is set to take place at the Stade Roi Baudouin.
Mark van Bommel’s reign with the Belgian Red Devils began with a 2-0 win over the Italians. Despite having less amount of ball control, the Belgian national football team utilised all the chances they got. That built immense pressure on their opponents.
The upcoming contest is going to be a tough one for them. Mark van Bommel’s men will be looking to establish control from the beginning and must not miss out on any chances. Being at home is going to be a big positive for them.
The France national football team have also started their UEFA Nations League 2026-27 campaign with a victory. They took down Turkiye in what was a 1-0 win for them. This also marks their first win under the Zinedine Zidane era.
The Frenchmen came up with a calm and composed approach. Les Bleus had the majority of ball control and did not allow many chances to their opponents. They will be away from home for their upcoming contest, and it can become a slight problem for them.
