Belgium vs Italy: Head to Head Prediction 

Looking at the recent form of the two teams, this fixture is tough to predict. Both teams are having an impressive undefeated run, with Italy’s run being a little more impressive. However, the Red Devils are known to cause an upset almost every time they are written out. 

Eden Hazard, and Kevin De Bruyne, are doubtful to play as they were seen being subbed off after taking heavy blows against Portugal. Their absence slightly tilts the balance of the game in favor of the Italians.
