Nations League matchday 5 and 6: Belgium back at it!

The Nations League is back, and so is Lukaku for Belgium! What can we expect from matchday 5 and 6 coming up next week? In this article, we’ll be shining a light on the most important encounters in Europe’s ongoing national football competition. Of course, we’ll pay special attention to Belgium and the games in its group!

Belgium vs Italy

14/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Belgium

With Lukaku back in the team, we’re bound to see a different Belgium than the one we’ve seen previously. Italy will go home without any points for sure!

France vs Israel

14/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: France

France plays the kind of consistent football that opponents find infuriatingly hard to counter. Israel will go home empty-handed here.

Greece vs England

14/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: England

Greece is actually first in its group, after 4 straight wins. England is second so far. It could be a close fight, but England should get Greece on its knees.

Denmark vs Spain

15/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Spain

Denmark is trailing behind leader Spain, but a victory for the Danish could set them both at 10 points. Against the European champion, that won’t happen, though.

Israel vs Belgium

17/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Belgium

Before these 2 matchdays, Israel had notched 4 defeats in 4 games. Against a Belgium that regained focus, the Israelis won’t stand a chance.

Italy vs France

17/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: France

Italy came into matchday 5 and 6 as the leader in its group. Both teams will make it an entertaining encounter, but leave it the those wily Bleus to win here!

Croatia vs Portugal

18/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Portugal

Honestly, this one could go either way on any given day. Despite Croatia’s home advantage, the experts foresee a victory for Portugal.

Liechtenstein vs San Marino

18/11 8.45 p.m.

Most likely to win: Liechtenstein

Clash of the tinies at the bottom of the international ranking! Liechtenstein will get its revenge for the previous encounter, when San Marino won a football game for the first time in over 2 decades.
