England Vs Belgium Prediction And Betting Tips

England vs Belgium Preview

Tournament – International Friendlies
Date – Tuesday, March 26
Kick-off Time – 07:45 pm GMT
Venue – Wembley Stadium, England

England will host Belgium in the second and final friendly of the international break on Tuesday evening. England fell to their first defeat in 15 months after Brazil secured a 1-0 win in their last game on Saturday. This will be England’s last game before a provisional Euro 2024 is announced next month.

England will have a home advantage for this friendly game. But they have lost their last three games against the Red Devils. The absence of Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka in this break would definitely pose a threat going forward.

Belgium, meanwhile, are unbeaten in 11 games under Domenico Tedesco. They dominated the European qualifiers this year, managing six wins and two draws and going unbeaten in their respective group.
