Belgium vs Romania Team Overview
Belgium
Romelu Lukaku and his team suffered an unexpected defeat against Slovakia in the opening round of the EURO 2024 group stage. Lukaku found the net twice, but both goals were disallowed. If the Belgian national team fails to win the upcoming match, they will be on the brink of elimination.
The work continues.

Overall, Belgium appeared lacklustre during the match. Despite the disallowed goals by VAR, stars like Kevin De Bruyne, Jeremy Doku, and Leandro Trossard were largely ineffective. It seemed like an entirely different Belgium squad took the field.
The match against Romania is crucial for The Red Devils. With many of their key players already over 30, they need to dig deep and find the strength to secure a victory in this critical encounter.
Romania
Romania should be in high spirits after their impressive victory over Ukraine in the first round. Initially, Edward Iordănescu’s team was not considered the favourite for the match. However, they demonstrated high-quality football throughout the whole game, scored spectacular goals and are now poised to contend for the top spot in the group.

The stats in the match against Ukraine might be misleading. Although Ukraine had an advantage in possession, Romania deliberately conceded the ball to focus on maintaining their lead. Romania was calm and allowed their opponents very few real chances on goal.
Facing Belgium will be a tough test for Romania. A draw would almost certainly secure them a spot in the next round, but they will be aiming for much more.

Belgium vs Romania Prediction
- Pick: Belgium (-1.5) Handicap
- Odds: 2.22 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Belgium 2-0 Romania
Belgium’s disastrous performance in the first match leaves them with no other option but to win against Romania. Under Tedesco, they have suffered their first defeat in just 15 matches and before the start of the tournament they were considered one of the outsiders to win the European Championship.
Despite the goalless outcome, Tedesco should be praised for his substitutions. Both Johan Bakayoko and Loïs Openda intensified the game and put significant pressure on the opponent’s goal.
Baka, please!

Unlike the Belgians, Romania capitalized on their chances in the match against Ukraine. The goals from Stanciu and Marin showcased their individual brilliance. However, replicating that success against a motivated Belgium will be challenging.
While Belgium stumbled in their first match, they have what it takes to secure the desired win. We expect Belgium to win with a handicap.
