Who is Belgium coach?


Dominic Tedesco was appointed as Roberto Martínez's successor in February 2023. The Italian-German coach has previously taken charge at the likes of Schalke, Spartak Moskva and Leipzig, and has said in the past "I always want my teams to divide the space well... because we love attacking."


Belgium key player: Kevin De Bruyne


Blessed with extraordinary vision, laser-precise passing and goalscoring ability, De Bruyne is the creative linchpin of the Man City team that have dominated English football of late. Despite missing games through injury this term, De Bruyne nonetheless moved second in the list of Premier League assist providers both this season and all time. He is also among Belgium's top ten goalscorers historically, having represented his country at five major tournaments, including the last two EUROs.


Belgium one to watch: Johan Bakayoko



Rated one of the best dribblers in Europe, the 21-year-old Bakayoko has been PSV Eindhoven's shining light in an astonishing Eredivisie-winning campaign. For Belgium, he has one goal and two assists, not to mention rising expectations from supporters who have seen Eden Hazard depart and are looking for that dynamic winger to drive them to glory.
