Belgium’s potential path to victory

Belgium was the heavy favorite to win Group E, but Domenico Tedesco’s men ended up finishing second. That left them facing a tricky Round of 16 clash with France. Les Bleus beat Belgium at the 2018 World Cup and the 2021 UEFA Nations League. As such, Belgium was the underdog against France and ended up losing. Had it won, it could have ended up facing Portugal in the quarterfinals, so it would need to defy the odds yet again to reach the semifinals, where potential opponents would include Germany and Spain.

Belgium group stage fixtures

• Belgium vs. Slovakia (12 p.m. ET on June 17)

Why Belgium could win Euro 2024

An attacking triumvirate featuring Lukaku, Doku, and Arsenal forward Leandro Trossard is full of pace and dynamism. Belgium boasts a world-class playmaker in De Bruyne, while a midfield featuring Onana and Youri Tielemans is pretty solid. There are question marks about the defense, but Belgium could potentially outgun its opponents at this tournament.

What can stop Belgium from winning Euro 2024?

The injury to Courtois is a major blow, and the defense looks a little light. There is also a lack of depth in the squad, and an injury to De Bruyne or Lukaku could derail Belgium’s campaign.

Key player: Kevin De Bruyne

The midfield maestro is arguably the world’s greatest playmaker. He has been consistently brilliant since moving to Manchester City in 2015, and he has the ability to unlock any defense in soccer. If he is firing on all cylinders, Belgium will be a daunting opponent for anyone at this tournament.

How has Belgium performed in past Euros?

Belgium’s best performance at the Euros came in 1980, when it lost 2-1 to Germany in the final. The Belgians failed to qualify in 2004, 2008, and 2012, and they suffered a shocking 3-1 defeat to Wales in the quarterfinals of Euro 2016. They were among the favorites at the last European Championship, as they were No. 1 in the FIFA world rankings, but they lost 2-1 to Italy in the quarterfinals.
