England-Belgium official lineups: predicted scorers, cautioned and shooters of the upcoming luxury friendly between two European soccer bigwigs.
A challenge that is never trivial. Protagonists of growth paths with many points of contact, England and Belgium are set to enliven Tuesday’s friendly with an international scope with a challenge that promises battle. The match between the “Three Lions” and the “Red Devils,” in fact, will not only be a confrontation between two offensive and modern playing propositions. There are many individualities, in fact, that could break the bank, steering the direction of the match in one direction rather than the other. Below are the choices of the two CTs:
INGHILTERRA (4-2-3-1) Pickford; Konsa, Stones, Dunk, Chilwell; Mainoo, Rice; Bowen, Bellingham, Foden; Toney.
BELGIUM: Sels; Castagne, Vertongen, Theate, Debast; Tielemans, Onana, Mangala; Trossard, Lukaku, Doku.
England-Belgium, the scorers prediction
When the going gets tough, Jude Bellingham starts playing. Or perhaps to enchant. The Real Madrid all-star midfielder, the author of a season that to call fantastic would be solely and exclusively an understatement, is one of the most influential candidates to score at least one goal. Taking advantage of that great ability he has shown to capitalize on even the most seemingly superficial opportunities, the former Borussia Dortmund man has a great chance of finding the crux of the matter by sealing at least one goal. The goal-scoring option, at least for tonight, cannot but fall to him.
Probable cautions and marksmen for England-Belgium
With two sides that rarely mind calculations, there are all the ingredients to witness a sizzling encounter with many chances on either side. The conclusions directed into the opponent’s goal mirror, in this respect, should not be lacking. In this regard, at home England, Declan Rice and Foden represent intriguing options from a shooter’s perspective. Belgium, however, has no intention of playing the sacrificial victim. Far from it.
Albeit at an experimental stage, the “Red Devils” can create many headaches for the English rearguard by exploiting the physicality and speed of some of its performers. Doku and Trossard, for example, should not miss the appointment with the shot. As for possible cautions, however, watch out especially for Dunk and Mangala. The feeling is that the English defender and the Belgian midfielder, if attacked at speed, may be forced to spend at least one yellow card.
