A Battle in Brussels
Key Stats
– Romelu Lukaku is the top scorer of the Euro 2024 qualifiers with nine goals.
– Sweden are on the brink of missing their first Euros since 1996.
Belgium, having secured their place in Euro 2024, are set to welcome Sweden to the Belgian capital. While the Red Devils are gearing up for next summer’s grand event, the Swedes face a must-win situation, hoping that Austria stumbles in their match against Azerbaijan.
Group F Dynamics
Just recently, Belgium celebrated their European Championship qualification with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Austria. Dodi Lukebakio and Romelu Lukaku, the nation’s record goalscorer, were instrumental in sealing this win. As the Belgians relished their triumph, the Austrians showed resilience, making Belgium work for the three points. This win positioned Belgium comfortably at the top of Group F with 16 points, resulting from five wins and a draw. Under the leadership of Domenico Tedesco, Belgium have undergone a transformation. Since their premature exit in the 2022 World Cup, they’ve recorded victories in six of their seven matches.

Sweden, on the other hand, haven’t experienced the same fortunes. After a demoralising 3-0 loss to Belgium in their opening match, their campaign took a hit. As of now, Janne Andersson’s squad has accumulated only six points. To qualify, they need more than just a victory; they require Austria to falter in their next game.
Form Guide
Belgium have displayed a solid performance throughout the Euro Championship Qualifying phase, with a streak of five wins and a draw both in the qualifiers and across all competitions. Sweden’s journey has been a mixed bag, alternating between wins and losses.
Team News
For Belgium, Tedesco might introduce some fresh faces since they’ve already qualified. However, he has a depleted squad to choose from, with Amadou Onana suspended and Premier League players like Leandro Trossard and Ameen Al-Dakhil out due to injuries. Notable names like Kevin De Bruyne and Thibaut Courtois are also absent. Despite these setbacks, Belgium still boasts talent like Romelu Lukaku, the top scorer of the Euro 2024 qualifiers, who has a whopping nine goals to his name.
Sweden are expected to field their strongest XI after experimenting in the friendly against Moldova. Key players such as Viktor Gyokeres, Dejan Kulusevski, and captain Victor Lindelof are likely to return to the lineup.

Predictions

- Match Outcome: Belgium win. Belgium’s dominance in Group F, combined with their home advantage, gives them the upper hand against the struggling Swedes.
- Correct Score: 3-1 in favour of Belgium. Given Belgium’s attacking prowess, they’re likely to score multiple goals, but Sweden’s desperation might allow them to net one.
- Goalscorer: Romelu Lukaku. Leading the scoring charts with nine goals in six matches, Lukaku’s form suggests he will find the net again.
- First Half Result: Belgium to lead. Given Belgium’s history of early strikes, it’s likely they’ll be ahead at the half-time whistle.
