Greece national football team takes on the visitors Belgium national football team at "Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium" in the matchday eight of the Europe’s Qualifiers Group stage for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. The game will be played in Piraeus on Sunday, September 3rd.
Greece has been unable to get a victory across five recent clashes of the season covering one loss and four draws. If 1:1 draw against Belgium on the road and two draws against Bosnia and Herzegovina at away field and at home can be regarded as suitable results, then 0:0 draw vs. Estonia last Thursday is definitely a fail. Having lost points in the above mentioned encounter, Michael Skibbe's side crossed out its chances for taking the first place in the Group H and directly promote to WC-2018 final competition. After seven rounds played the Greeks occupy the second place in the group standings with 13 points earned and 10-3 goal difference being six points behind Belgium.

The Belgian team comes up to the clash with 10-game unbeaten run, having won seven matches alongside with three draws gained during that period. Last Thursday "Die Roten Teufel" thrashed out Gibraltar with 9:0 scoreline being one step away from qualification to the Mundial final stage. Belgium takes the lead in the Group H with 19 points gained and 33-2 goal difference and for officially securing itself a place in the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia it needs not to lose to Greece in the forthcoming head-to-head.
As Greece was unable to succeed in the fight against Estonia, I don't believe that it will manage to earn three points in the battle against Belgium. I expect much fight and few scored goals in the forthcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – negative.
