Belgium vs Egypt Players to Watch

Kevin De Bruyne (Belgium)

The Belgian captain remains the heartbeat of his national team. Even in the latter stages of his career, De Bruyne's creativity, vision and ability to unlock defences make him Belgium's biggest weapon.

Jeremy Doku (Belgium)

The explosive winger could prove decisive against Egypt's defence. His pace and direct running offer Belgium a different dimension in attack.

Mohamed Salah (Egypt)

Egypt's hopes largely rest on the shoulders of their superstar forward. Playing in what could be his final World Cup, Salah will be desperate to lead his nation beyond the group stage for the first time.

Omar Marmoush (Egypt)

The versatile attacker has enjoyed a strong rise in recent seasons and will provide much-needed support to Salah in the final third.

Predicted XIs

Belgium (Predicted):
Koen Casteels; Timothy Castagne, Wout Faes, Zeno Debast, Arthur Theate; Amadou Onana, Youri Tielemans; Jeremy Doku, Kevin De Bruyne, Leandro Trossard; Lois Openda.

Egypt (Predicted):
Mohamed El Shenawy; Mohamed Hany, Ahmed Hegazi, Mohamed Abdelmonem, Mohamed Hamdy; Hamdy Fathy, Marwan Attia; Mahmoud Trezeguet, Zizo, Omar Marmoush; Mohamed Salah.

What's at Stake?

Belgium will be targeting maximum points before facing Iran and New Zealand in their remaining group matches. A convincing victory would strengthen their position as Group G favourites.

Egypt, meanwhile, know that even a draw against Belgium could significantly improve their chances of advancing. With matches against New Zealand and Iran still to come, avoiding defeat would represent an ideal start to their campaign.
