EURO 2024 Belgium vs Slovakia: What to Expect
Belgium, despite not having the same quality as their Golden Generation, still possesses enough attacking talent to pose a threat to any opponent. Slovakia, although considered the weakest side in Group E, has plenty of European experience and could potentially cause problems for Belgium’s backline.
Belgium is expected to dominate possession and create several scoring opportunities through the creative play of De Bruyne and Trossard. A goal from Lukaku or a set-piece is highly anticipated.
Slovakia will likely attempt to exploit Belgium’s defensive vulnerabilities through quick counter-attacks. With players like Bozeník and Haraslín, they might find chances to test Casteels and possibly score.
