England vs Belgium Prediction & Match Preview

• Belgium are unbeaten in twelve subsequent outings across competitions.
• England will be without Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka once again.
• Only one of England’s last five matches in all competitions saw three or more goals scored.

England will be looking to rebound from a 0-1 loss to Brazil on Friday night. They host Belgium four days later in the second exhibition of the year at Wembley Stadium. The visitors did not shine in their first game of 2024 either, playing only a disappointing goalless draw to Ireland on Friday.

Gareth Southgate did not count on Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka in the defeat to Brazil. Neither star will feature on Tuesday. The Three Lions will also be without Kyle Walker and Harry Maguire through injuries. It will be interesting to see whether Ollie Watkins will get the nod up front after Ollie Watkins received his chance in the starting lineup on Friday.

Belgium were also without their two main stars on Friday. Romelu Lukaku sat out the goalless draw to Ireland while Man City’s Kevin De Bruyne was not available for selection. The latest reports reveal that Lukaku should feature on Tuesday in London.

England vs Belgium Prediction

England did little to impress offensively against an inexperienced Brazil side on Friday night. Only one of Brazil’s four starting defenders had ever featured for the national team before. The Three Lions clearly have issues without their main stars on the field. Gareth Southgate will need to improvise on Tuesday. In these circumstances, we do not see the value in backing England to win at the 1.90 odds. Belgium are undefeated in twelve subsequent outings across competitions. We will back the Red Devils to avoid a defeat at Wembley at the 1.95 odds.

The Under 2.5 goals pick also looks like a great betting option at the 1.80 odds. Only one of England’s last five outings provided three or more goals. Belgium will come into this off the back of a goalless draw to Ireland. The match had only three shots on target by both teams combined on Friday. Lastly, four of the previous five H2H encounters between England and Belgium finished with fewer than three goals scored.
