Match Preview
After crashing out of Qatar 2022 in the group stage, Belgium have some making up to do — they topped UEFA qualification unbeaten and arrive as one of Europe’s most dangerous sides, while Egypt, led by Mohamed Salah, believe they have a strong opportunity to reach the knockout rounds for the first time.
Coach Rudi Garcia sets Belgium up in a 4-2-3-1, with Kevin De Bruyne pulling the strings at number 10 — expect Egypt to sit in a low defensive block and hit Belgium on the counter through Salah’s pace and Marmoush’s movement in behind.
Romelu Lukaku’s match fitness is the biggest question hanging over the Belgian attack, having played barely any football this season through injury; subject to fitness, his availability could prove decisive, while Egypt’s selection of 18-year-old Hamza Abdelkarim adds a wildcard element to their attack.

Key Players to Watch
- Kevin De Bruyne: Belgium’s creative heartbeat at 34, operating as the number 10 and pulling the strings with his world-class passing range — if Belgium go deep, De Bruyne will be the reason.
- Romelu Lukaku: Belgium’s all-time leading scorer with 89 international goals, including five at the World Cup — a fit Lukaku is virtually unplayable for lower-ranked defences.
- Jeremy Doku: The dazzling dribbling skills of Jeremy Doku are a potent weapon, capable of torching full-backs with electric pace and causing chaos on the right flank.

- Omar Marmoush: The Manchester City forward is expected to lead Egypt’s attack, bringing clinical finishing and Premier League experience to complement Salah in the final third.
- Hamza Abdel Karim: An 18-year-old attacking talent playing for FC Barcelona B — one of Egypt’s most exciting young prospects who could make his senior debut at the World Cup.

Belgium vs Egypt Prediction
Belgium hold the clear edge on paper — ranked ninth in the world with a deep, experienced squad built around elite European club talent, they face an Egypt side whose World Cup record reads five defeats in seven played and zero wins in their history.
De Bruyne’s creativity, Lukaku’s physicality (if fit), and Doku’s pace should be enough to break down Egypt’s defensive block, even if the Pharaohs make it uncomfortable.
Expect Belgium to shade it 2–0, with Salah likely to create havoc on the break and keep it from becoming a rout — but in football, a fired-up Egypt with one of the world’s greatest players in Salah can never be written off entirely.
