Prediction: 1-2
France
All eyes will be on King Baudouin Stadium when Belgium and France lock horns in the UEFA Nations League derby. Belgium showed character in a 2-2 draw with Italy as they came from two goals behind to share the spoils with the Azzurri at Stadio Olimpico, but it has to be noted that Lorenzo Pellegrini was sent off for the hosts after 38 minutes. Anyhow, home win should not be considered as both Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku are out of contention for the home side.
Les Tricolores, on the other hand, defeated Israel 4-1 on Thursday to climb to second place in the standings and even though Real Madrid ace Kylian Mbappe is rested in October games, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting team. PSG winger Bradley Barcola is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the last group game.
Highlighted Player (Romelu Lukaku):
Romelu Lukaku Bolingoli, born on 13th of ay 1993 is a Belgian player with roots form Congo. Lukaku played for several youth teams before he got picked up by RSC Anderlecht. After playing for only 2 seasons for Anderlecht Chelsea picked him up for around12 million euro.

The biggest achievement of Lukakui is winning the Eerste klasse in Belgium and the English FA Cup. With his strength and goal scoring abilities Lukaku can be considered as one of the deadliest strikers of the world. Nicknames for Lukaku are Big Rom and the Tank.
Highlighted Team (France):
Recording impressive results on international stage since 1904, France are widely regarded as one of the world’s most successful national teams, with three major trophies to their name. Two of those were won on home soil as Les Bleus emerged triumphant at the 1984 World Cup and 1998 European Championships, before also winning the 2000 Euros in Netherlands and Belgium.
Michel Platini, Jean Tigana, Luis Fernandez and Alain Giresse formed the “Carre Magique” during the 80’s as one of the most impressive attacking line-ups made life difficult for opposition defenders for years on end.
The new golden generation appeared at the turn of the century and featured players like Thierry Henry, Zinedine Zidane, David Trezeguet and Youri Djorkaef, winning back to back major trophies to place Les Bleus back on the map.
A new world-class team appears to be in the making as the likes of Paul Pogba, Antoine Griezmann and Raphael Varane are the pillars of the team led by Didier Deschamps. France national team now play their games at the stunning Saint Denis, or Stade de France.
