Belgium vs Kazakhstan

Back the dominant hosts to rack up the goals against the struggling visitors

Rudi Garcia’s side faced a straightforward task on Thursday night as they dismantled Liechtenstein; however, the Red Devils cannot afford to take it easy due to being pitched into a competitive group featuring Wales and North Macedonia, both of whom lead the way in Group J currently.
Garcia’s decision to give Youri Tielemans the captain's armband looks to be an inspired choice, with the midfielder having scored on Thursday and been directly involved in four goals across the last two international breaks. Belgium are often described as ‘flat track bullies’ and they relish taking on lesser opposition.
Although this is expected to be much tougher than taking on Liechtenstein, however, they will dominate possession and they are expected to win this fairly comfortably. They didn’t allow their opponents to take a shot on Thursday and have scored ten times across their last two qualifiers, albeit three months apart.
Kazakhstan are struggling. They have lost each of their last two qualifiers to nil, managing just three shots on target in each of those games, and they are fairly porous on the road. They may struggle to create chances, and although they will do their best to keep things tight, they cannot rely on keeping a clean sheet against this Belgian juggernaut.
Having failed to notch in familiar surroundings against Wales, they are expected to draw a third consecutive blank on Sunday evening.
