Spain Favored as Belgium Seek Another Statement Win
As quoted by Sports Illustrated, Spain enter the quarterfinals as one of the tournament's strongest sides after a remarkable turnaround under Luis de la Fuente. Following disappointing World Cup exits in recent editions, La Roja have rebuilt their squad and are now aiming for a second world title after their Euro 2024 triumph.
Spain have been in dominant form at the 2026 World Cup, winning four consecutive matches after opening the tournament with a goalless draw against Cape Verde.
They advanced to the quarterfinals after Mikel Merino scored a late winner in a 1-0 victory over Portugal, eliminating Cristiano Ronaldo in what was expected to be the veteran forward's final World Cup appearance.
Their biggest strength has been their defense, with Spain yet to concede a goal in five matches. Under De la Fuente, Spain have lost only three of 46 games and remain unbeaten in their last 35 matches in all competitions. They will also count on young star Lamine Yamal, who has recorded 18 goal contributions in 30 appearances for the national team.
Belgium, meanwhile, arrive with renewed confidence after a convincing 4-1 victory over hosts United States in the round of 16. Charles De Ketelaere scored twice in that match, while Leandro Trossard has emerged as a key attacking figure during the tournament.
However, Belgium face challenges ahead of the Spain clash, including defensive concerns and the absence of midfielder Amadou Onana, who suffered an ACL injury in the previous round. Kevin De Bruyne could take on a more advanced midfield role, while Trossard, De Ketelaere, and Romelu Lukaku are expected to play important roles in Belgium's attacking plans.
Predicted Lineups
Spain (4-2-3-1)
Unai Simón; Pedro Porro, Pau Cubarsí, Aymeric Laporte, Marc Cucurella; Rodri, Pedri; Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo, Álex Baena; Mikel Oyarzabal.
Belgium (4-2-3-1)
Thibaut Courtois; Timothy Castagne, Nathan Ngoy, Brandon Mechele, Maxim De Cuyper; Youri Tielemans, Hans Vanaken; Leandro Trossard, Kevin De Bruyne, Jérémy Doku; Charles De Ketelaere.
