Belgium and Senegal square off in the World Cup last 32 in what promises to be an entertaining battle between two in-form sides. As Belgium have been raising their form game by game, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. Belgium sealed their place in the last 32 with a commanding 5-1 victory over New Zealand, with Leandro Trossard stealing the show by scoring a brace. Defender Nathan Ngoy returns from suspension, giving coach Rudi Garcia another important option at the back. The Red Devils have been in excellent form, winning six of their last ten matches while averaging an impressive 3.1 goals per game. They have also produced 2.27 expected goals (xG) per match and conceded just 0.8 goals on average, highlighting their balance between attack and defence.
Senegal responded brilliantly to their defeat against Norway by thrashing ten-man Iraq 5-0 to reach the knockout stages. Pape Gueye is expected to return to the starting XI after coming off the bench to score twice, while goalkeeper Edouard Mendy remains a doubt after missing the Iraq match through injury. The Lions of Teranga have won six of their last ten games, averaging 1.8 goals scored and keeping six clean sheets during that period, proving they remain a difficult side to break down.
As Belgium look sharp up front and keep on improving, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Both sides are coming off high-scoring victories and have plenty of attacking talent).
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Wednesday 1 July 2026 at 21:00.
