Monday’s final Euro 2016 tie sees Fifa’s second highest ranked side Belgium square up to 2012 Euros finalist Italy.

Both sides come into the match in confident mood having topped their qualifying groups and ending their pre-tournament friendly preparations unbeaten. While Belgium defeated Norway 3-2 and drew 1-1 with Finland, Italy recorded wins against Scotland and Finland.

Marc Wilmots’ team are set to rely heavily on Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, who created more chances than any other player during qualification. Along with Chelsea’s Eden Hazard he was also the Red Devils’ top scorer in qualifying with five goals.

Antonio Conte’s Italy were one of only four sides, alongside England, Austria and Romania, to be undefeated in qualifying. They did this despite not having a regular goal scorer, with Southampton striker Graziano Pelle the Azzuri’s top scorer in qualifying with just three goals.

      Not just in football, in general too.

    What a double act

  15. ★Kuntheman★

    Fellaini and Origi are such donkeys. De Bruyne could've had a load of assists.

      Are you joking? In pretty sure KDB has been drinking heavily all day

        He's right though. Played a very poor game but all of our big chances were assisted by him.....

        Lukaku just over the bar
        Origi header
        Origi and Fellaini missing from close range
        ....

    Tekkers should be first choice for Belgium. Might be crap for Liverpool, but still a beast for them.

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years

      Well after the horror shows from Lukaku and Origi he may get his wish

    2. Somalion

      I know I'm harping on but Batshuayi deserves his chance.

  21. tm245

    Genius at time wasting, even squeezing out extra seconds when the ref has played advantage.

    Who needs to know how to govern when you can do that?
