Group E has been the most unpredictable and exciting group of the tournament. All four teams—Belgium, Ukraine, Slovakia, and Romania—are tied on three points, making the final round crucial for qualification.

A loss could spell the end for either Belgium or Ukraine, both of whom entered the tournament as favorites to progress.

Ukraine started their Euro 2024 campaign with a heavy defeat to Romania, leaving them in a shaky position heading into Matchday 2. However, they bounced back with a narrow victory over Slovakia, putting their fate back in their hands.

Currently, Ukraine have the worst goal difference in the group, meaning only a win against Belgium will guarantee their progression to the knockout stages.

Belgium also began their campaign poorly, suffering a surprising defeat to Slovakia. The Red Devils managed to turn things around with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Romania, boosting their confidence as they head into the final group match.

With a slightly better goal difference than Ukraine, a draw will be enough for Belgium to advance to the next round.
