The Republic of Ireland is gearing up to make a statement as they return to action following a disappointing fourth-place finish in the Euro qualifiers. Their campaign was marred by disappointment, managing only to surpass minnows Gibraltar.
Losing all six games in the group stage spelled the end for manager Stephen Kenny, resulting in his departure. In his place, John O’Shea, a veteran who has represented the Boys in Green over 100 times, steps in as the interim coach for the upcoming international window.
On the other hand, the Belgium national football team breezed through the Euro Qualifiers, topping their group ahead of Austria and Sweden. Under the guidance of Domenico Tedesco, the team put on a flawless display, securing victory in six out of eight matches, with the remaining two ending in draws.
However, the absence of Kevin de Bruyne, who struggled with injuries throughout the season, is notable in the Belgian squad. Despite this setback, the team boasts strength across all positions, with particular attention on the formidable striker Romelu Lukaku, who is currently in red-hot form. All eyes will be on him as Belgium aims to keep their momentum in the upcoming fixtures.
The teams met in a friendly in March 2022 and shared the spoils in a 2-2 draw.
Belgium is yet to lose a friendly or competitive match against Ireland since 1934. This is an unbeaten streak of 9 games with 3 wins and 6 draws. Two of those three wins happened inside the recent three meetings.
However, Belgium is yet to register a win against Ireland in Irish soil. They were held to draw in all 5 h2h meetings.
Belgium is an exciting side under Domenico Tedesco and have the ability to blow away opponents. Just don’t look at their record in Ireland and go for Belgium to win here with odds priced in the region of 2.20.
Despite being inconsistent for AS Roma, Romelu Lukaku had an excellent European qualifier where he netted 14 goals, and we are backing him to score anytime in Dublin.
Belgium has scored three or more goals in four of their last five away games across all competitions, and this is why we find excellent value in backing the over 2.5 match goals priced just above 2 odds as another solid bet.
