Belgium vs Greece prediction and preview 

Much has been made of Belgium's golden generation but the Red Devils have yet to make their mark at major international tournaments and will hope to do so at the Euro 2020. The No.1 ranked side in the world, Belgium would hope to build on third place at the World Cup in Russia three years ago. The European championships present them with the opportunity to stamp their authority on the international stage and build for World Cup in Qatar next year. Roberto Martinez's side are expected to finish at the top of the pile in Group B with Denmark, Finland and Russia beyond which things could turn tricky for Romelu Lukaku and Co.

Greece were the unlikely winners at the Euro 2004, but since then they have failed to match up to their lofty standards, even failing to qualify for the 2016 Euros and 2018 World Cup. A return to the European Championships provides them with the opportunity to muster some lost pride and they come into the tournament on the back of some good form, navigated their 2020-21 Nations League campaign undefeated. A similar result on Thursday could serve as the catalyst for the team heading into a major tournament, and head coach John van 't Schip will hope for the same.
