Belgium vs Canada Preview & Prediction
Time is running out for Belgium’s golden generation to secure international silverware together as they prepare for their World Cup opener with Canada.
Led by the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, Thibaut Courtois and Romelu Lukaku, Belgium have the ability to beat any nation on the planet at their best.
However, their defence might be their undoing in Qatar. Belgium have conceded in 11 of their last 13 matches in all competitions and don’t look convincing at the back. Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld have a combined age of 68 years, while Dortmund defender Thomas Meunier is injured for this game.
Belgium advanced to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup to claim third-place honours, but this could be their last genuine chance to conquer the world.
Meanwhile, Canada are appearing at the World Cup for the first time since 1986, with young superstars Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David leading a new generation of football in the country.
David is thriving on the international stage, scoring 22 goals in 35 games for Canada, while he’s also scored nine goals in 15 Ligue 1 matches this season. With Belgium far from reliable at the back, David will be relishing the chance to claim a maiden World Cup goal.
Canada scored 23 goals in qualifying, so they will certainly fancy themselves to get on the scoresheet, but they were only able to beat El Salvador and Honduras on the road in qualifying, so they might find the going tough on foreign soil.
VERDICT:
As mentioned, Canada should be able to find the back of the net against an unreliable and ageing Belgium defence.
That being said, Canada are still very inexperienced at this level and they themselves look short at the back. Belgium have more overall class and firepower across the pitch and should be able to outscore their opponents and claim all three points (Best BTTS – YES odds $1.80 with bet365.)
