Russia hosts Belgium in round 9 of Euro qualification. The match will be played on Saturday, November 16th at Gazprom Arena (Saint Petersburg)
The Russian national football team completed the main task of the qualifying cycle - it qualified for the 2020 European Championship and did it ahead of schedule two rounds before the end of the qualification stage. The men of Stanislav Cherchesov showed bright and interesting football, sometimes they overcame themselves and squeezed the desired result, as was the case in the home match with the national team of Kazakhstan and Cyprus. Alternatively, they rocked in the second half in matches with Scotland and the Cypriots on the road. In general, the main task is accomplished, but both teams are set up for the upcoming match. Moreover, it is a rather serious challenge for the Russians and they are preparing to give a fight to the leader of the FIFA World Ranking. There are injured players, but there are others to choose from at the same time. Zelimkhan Bakaev, Akhmetov, and other young talents were invited.

The Belgian national football team is also preparing to field the strongest players. Roberto Martinez, the head coach of the team, did a good and high-quality job in the qualification for the 2020 European Championship. Only Russia resisted the Belgians in these qualifiers, and they conceded one goal from Denis Cheryshev, who will not play in the upcoming game due to injury. The group was rather easy for the Belgian national team because the Scots became much weaker, but the Russians fought in the first game and must give a fight in a home meeting. Now the Belgian national team is confidently leading in the Group I standings with twenty-four points scored and the total goal difference is 30:1.
I propose to take a bet on the exchange of goals scored with an excellent coefficient. The Russian team, led by Cherchesov, is tuned to the battle and doesn’t want to disgrace itself in front of its fans. The Belgians also decided to fight, and Roberto Martinez called all the strongest. From the tournament point of view, this match is not important because both teams prematurely promoted to the main stage of the 2020 European Championship. But Russian football players want to face off against the Belgians on their land. I think that the Russians will score a goal. The defense of Belgium sometimes fails, and if the visitors score first, there may be a comeback draw, as it was before the 2018 World Cup.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
