When it comes to Belgium EURO 2021 Squad, the main question is whether they have a chance to become European champions or not. Perhaps the best answer is – yes, IF the squad will include the big names of Belgian football. In that case, Belgium could become one of the biggest favorites to win the upcoming European Championship.
Belgian selector, Roberto Martinez, has got the amazing squad of both young and older, experienced players. We can see the list of their players that includes amazing football players, such as: Kurtoa, De Bruine, Azar Mertens, Lukaku, and Alderweireld which is more than enough to understand that Belgium has a great chance to triumph in this championship!
When it comes to the players who’ll miss to play for the National Team are Vincent Kompany, Moussa Dembélé, and Koen Casteels.
Before the UEFA European Championship, Belgium Squad will play two friendly matches. One will be against Greece on 3rd of June, and the other will be against Croatia on 6th of June.
They will be playing in Group B. Belgium will first meet Russia on June 12, then 5 days later, they’ll play against Denmark in Copenhagen. The conclusion of the group is setted on June 21 against Finland. It seems that the Belgians are the first favorites here, and smoothly.
One of the biggest advantages of Belgium Squad is that the players already know each other very well, since they’ve been playing in younger categories. Eden Hazard is one of the strongest links and a lot will depend on his form. De Bruine, Lukaku, Courtois, Castagne, Meunier are the players that all opponents are afraid of and they are there to give their maximum
So, let’s wait and see what we can expect from this amazing squad!
