Sweden vs Belgium: A tough start

In theory, Belgium is still a formidable team with many stars playing at top European clubs. However, fans need to remember that the Red Devils are no longer the number 1 team in the world when they have consecutive bad results at the recent World Cup finals.

Accordingly, Lukaku and his teammates played underpowered and soon stopped in the group stage after a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss. With the above result, Belgium dropped to 4th place on the FIFA rankings and forced Coach Roberto Martínez had to leave the national team after 6 years of working.

Returning to the Euro 2024 qualifying campaign, Belgium will have many structural changes when led by the new coach Tedesco. According to the assessment, they will need more time to adapt and it is difficult to ask for coach Tedesco to have an impressive start in his debut against Sweden.

For their part, Sweden entered the opening match of the Euro 2024 qualifier F with an excited mentality when playing at home. Notably, Ibrahimović and his teammates are maintaining stability when they won 4 and drew only 1 in the last 5 matches. With the current form, Sweden is confident to win points against Belgium.

- Sweden: Olsen; J.Andersson, Lindelof, Starfelt, Augustinsson; Kulusevski, Forsberg, Svanberg, Elanga; Isak, Ibrahimovic.

- Belgium: Courtois; Faes; Vertonghen, Theate; Castagne, Lavia, Onana, Carrasco; De Bruyne, De Ketelaere; Lukaku.
