Wales take on Belgium in the European Championship quarterfinals. The match will be played in Lille at Stade Pierre Mauroy on Friday, July 1st.
Wales won their group quite unexpectedly and get a chance to avoid strong opponents in round of 16. This is exactly what happened to the team, as they faced neighbors Northern Ireland, who were lucky to advance for knockout phase. The match itself wasn’t eventful, just like it was expected and British sides were focused on denying opponent’s efforts. Wales leaders Ramsey and Bale didn’t show anything special in that match and the winner was decided with McAuley own goal. This 1-0 win allowed Wales to advance for the quarterfinals and remain the only British side at the tournament. Chris Coleman don’t have skilled players for each position but each footballer battle for each ball fiercely and they are able to offer a battle to any opponents.

Belgium learned their lesson after defeat against Italy in the first match of the group stage and started beating opponents one after another, defeating Sweden and Ireland in the group. Round of 16 against Hungary ended with confident 4-0 win of the Red Devils as Hungary decided to play open football with skilled Belgian team and payed the price. Three of the goal were scored in the last 10 minutes from counterattacks when Hungary switched to attacking actions. Offense of the team produces numerous chances but defensive line allows opponents too many opportunities to beat Courtois, who has showed solid play in the goal so far. Hungary had created quite number of chances to bet the keeper and more skilled team would definitely punish Belgian defense for such sloppiness.
The opponents have played 10 head-to-heads in their history. Wales have taken three wins, three matches ended with draws and four times Belgium defeated today’s opponents. These team played in the same qualifying group. Wales won home leg 1-0 and drew away one, 0-0. However, importance of the upcoming match is of much higher level and Belgian team should show they’ve learn the lesson well and take the place in the semifinals. If the Red Devils improve their performance in defense they might be considered as title contenders.
Prediction for the match: Belgium to win.
