Belgium vs. Wales / European Qualifiers 2016 – Two undefeated teams from this group will face each other in a situation when Belgium is third in the group but has played one match less, while Wales is the leader with two wins and a draw. Common to both of them is that they drew with Bosnia-Herzegovina but Belgium did that at home and they defeated Andorra, but Belgium did it with a better goal difference. Belgium on Wednesday played a friendly match, and they had played plenty of head-to-head before. They faced each other in the last qualifications too when Belgium won at home by 2-0, while in Brussels they drew 1-1 but at that point Belgium had already secured the first place in the group. Begins: 16.11.2014 – 18:00 CET

Belgium
The Belgians have played one match less and it spoils a bit their placement, but otherwise they haven’t done anything wrong so far. They outclassed Andorra, which was expected and won a valuable point in B-H. To compensate for the postponed match with Israel they played on Wednesday a friendly against Iceland, who in fact play similarly to Wales so it was a good test. It was a good match result wise, given that they won by 3-1.

It was not all easy but coach Wilmots had mixed the team and sent on the pitch a combination which will certainly not play against the Welsh. There were no captain Kompany in the defence, de Bruynea in the midfield , while Lukaku and Origi were not starters in the attack, who until now were the first choice for the offensive. Therefore, we should expect changes all over the team, with dilemmas about the right flank and the choice of strikers.

Probable lineups Belgium: Courtois – Alderweireld, Kompany, Lombaerts, Vertonghen – Witsel, Nainggolan – de Bruyne, E. Hazard – Origi

Wales
The Welsh can play without pressure this difficult away match, because they did a good job in the first three rounds. Now can only profit, if they manage to surprise, although they are aware that will be much more difficult to do than in the last match which they drew. The host were relaxed then and now they need to win, while Wales besides seven points didn’t impress much. They were even trailing behind Andorra in the first round and if the biggest stars of this team, Gareth Bale, wasn’t not there who knows how the match would end.

They drew with B-H at home and this is not a particularly good result, while they hardly defeated Cyprus. It must be said that from the beginning of the qualification they have problems with the team and are not complete, and will not be now. Again, there are no midfielders Ramsey and Ledley, stopper Chester and King, who is suspended because of the red card in the match against Cyprus, while on the other hand Allen is back in the team. Coach Coleman is therefore forced to make changes but Bale is ready, which is the most important at the moment.

Probable lineups Wales: Hennessey – Gunter, A. Williams, Collins, B. Davies – Allen, Collison, Bale, J. Williams, N. Taylor – Robson-Kanu

Belgium vs. Wales PICK
Belgium is too strong at the moment for Wales, even with Bale in the team. They need points in order to avoid complications and we believe that will win them without any problems. Home stadium and minimal problems with the players are sufficient for a clear victory.

Pick: Asian handicap -1.5 Belgium

Stake: 5/10
