It is without a doubt that Group E will be arguably the most interesting group to watch, as many surprises went down there. There is a real possibility that after matchday 2 all teams in the group have 3 points. Such an outcome will make the final matchday a real treat for all spectators as each team will have as much chance as the other to reach the knockout phase.
Belgium Team News
Belgium suffered a horrific start to their Euro campaign and was on the wrong end of arguably the biggest surprise in the tournament thus far. Despite this shocking defeat, Belgium did try their hardest and the result doesn’t tell the full story. That story is quite simple and unsurprising – Domenico Tedesco’s team dominated for the entirety of the match, had ample opportunities to score and had 2 goals disallowed. But the result is what matters and it was not favourable for Belgium. Against Romania, there will be no room left for errors as progressing through to the next round could be on the table for The Red Devils.
Romania Team News
And speaking of surprises, Romania handed the other surprise in the group – the 3-0 thrashing of Ukraine. It was an unexpected result, seeing as how Romania’s previous games in the preparation for the European championship did not hint at anything substantial or noteworthy. In fact, in their two friendly games against Bulgaria and Liechtenstein, Romania failed to even score and finished both games with 0-0 draws. They did manage to fly under the radar and deliver a devastating blow to Ukraine. Now it remains to be seen if they could maintain this good form, or if their opener was just a fluke.
Head-to-Head-Games
Belgium and Romania last met over 10 years ago. Back then it was the latter that won. But looking at the last 5 head-to-head games, we will see that Romania has won 3, while Belgium 2. Draws between these teams are not something that has happened yet and given the situation both are now in it does not seem likely again.
Belgium – Romania Betting Prediction
Despite losing their opening game, Belgium did create a lot of chances and had 2 goals disallowed. Given their predicament a win against Romania is mandatory. Domenico Tedesco’s team has more than enough firepower to score goals and they have proven that in previous games and they will certainly be looking for some here. My pick here is for Belgium to score over 1.5 goals and I have chosen it because of several factors. Firstly – Belgium need a win here. Secondly – luck was certainly not with them in the first game, but this team has already proven on multiple occasions that it can score plenty when needed.
