San Marino vs Belgium: Euro 2020
Qualifying Odds, Live Stream, TV Info,Belgium are fancied to beat San
Marino emphatically when the two teams meet in a Group I qualifier for
UEFA Euro 2020 on Friday.
The Red Devils are heavy favourites at the San
Marino Stadium, but the absence of Eden and Thorgan Hazard through
injury could blunt their creative output from wide areas. However,
Roberto Martinez will still be able to call on plenty of talent in
midfield and forward areas.Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne and
Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku will give Belgium enough attacking
impetus to run out comfortable winners.
Real Madrid winger Hazard is still
getting over a muscle strain, while his brother Thorgan, who plays for
Borussia Dortmund, has a rib injury, per BBC Sport.It means the creative
burden will rest with De Bruyne. Fortunately for Martinez, the
28-year-old has started his club season manufacturing chances for fun.De
Bruyne will have the freedom to let his vision and range unlock the San
Marino defence at will. He will be protected by the industry and
ingenuity of Wolverhampton Wanderers enforcer Leander Dendoncker and
Leicester City schemer Youri Tielemans.
Further forward, Leandro Trossard could
replace Hazard’s influence from the flanks. The former Genk star has
made a prolific beginning to his career with Brighton and Hove
AlbionTrossard and De Bruyne can keep the supply lines open to Lukaku.
His pace and power will be too much for a San Marino defence already
guilty of conceding 20 goals through four qualifiers.
