1. Belgium vs Russia Favourites

Belgium entered the 2020 European Championship as one of the favourites to win the tournament. They made no mistake during their qualifying campaign and finished top of the group having won all 10 of their matches. Only Italy managed to match Belgium's record during qualifying but even they had a lower goal difference come the end of the campaign.

The European championship is almost a home tournament for us. The bar is raised high enough, we do not want to go lower. We had a fairly high-quality qualifying cycle, and we will try to act in the same way. We want the attitude that has been in the national team recently to become stable. - Stanislav Cherchesov before the tournament, Show Sport

During qualifying, Belgium played Russia twice as they were in the same group and won both games. The first meeting came in the opening round of fixtures and Belgium won the match 3-1 at home. The second meeting between the teams was in Russia in the penultimate round of fixtures and again it was Belgium who came away with the win, defeating Russia 4-1.

If Belgium manage to hit the same heights as they did during the group match, expect to see plenty of goals. You can surely back Belgium to score over 3.5 goals. However, Russia showed during the 2018 World Cup how they are capable of defeating teams that are regarded as being superior to themselves.
