After an underwhelming draw against Ukraine saw Belgium miss out on top spot in Group E, Domenico Tedesco is expected to make two changes to his side as they prepare to face France in the Round of 16.
Belgium were the heavy favourites to top their group, however, it was Romania who pipped them to top spot. A draw against Ukraine in the final game leaves Belgium with a tough draw. For the encounter, Tedesco is expected to make two changes. Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard and Aston Villa’s Youri Tielemans are both expected to give way. In their place, Sevilla’s Dodi Lukebakio and Olympique Lyonnais’ Orel Mangala are set to play against Les Bleus, who go into the knockout game as favourites.

Koen Casteels; Arthur Theate, Jan Verthongen, Wout Faes, Timothy Castagnes; Amadou Onana, Orel Mangala; Jeremy Doku, Kevin De Bruyne, Dodi Lukebakio, Romelu Lukaku. (L’Éq)
