Belgium - Canada: prediction and bet on the World Cup 2022 in Qatar

We have formed for you a prediction for the match Belgium - Canada in group “F” at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. For both teams, the outcome of the match between Morocco and Croatia will be important, since the teams are in the same group.

Belgium (2nd place in the FIFA rankings/8th place UEFA) - will the results improve since the last World Cup 2018?

The Belgian national team played only one friendly game in November, where they lost to Egypt (1:2), which is somewhat sensational before the start of the World Cup. A match against Iraq was also scheduled, but it was rescheduled. Over the past 2 months, Belgium only in September had two matches in the League of Nations, where they managed to defeat Wales (2:1) and lost to the Netherlands (0:1).

Despite the seemingly eminent composition of Belgium, their results are not very stable. Over the last 10 games, Belgium have an average of 1.8 goals per game, they are on a two-game losing streak. Most of the questions are 1:2 with Egypt, as it was literally 5 days ago.

Some statistics on the Belgian national team: they scored in 9 of the last 10 matches; conceded in 8 out of 10. Of the interesting outcomes: a victory with Poland (6:1), a draw (2:2) with Ireland), a defeat against Egypt (1:2), two failures with the Netherlands (1:4 and 0:1).

Of the famous Belgian players: Thibault Courtois, Kevin de Bruyne, Yannick Carrasco, Amadou Onana, Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku. I would advise keeping an eye on Michy Batshuayi, he can surprise at this World Championship.

Top scorer for Belgium: Romelu Lukaku, and the most significant result in the World Championships is third place in 2018.

Canada (41st in the FIFA rankings) - qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 1986

Team Canada made it through the North American qualifiers, where they took first place, leaving behind Mexico, the United States and Costa Rica. Their final statistics were as follows: 8 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses in 14 games; difference in goals +16 (23/7).

Canada played two friendlies in November, where they drew (2:2) with Bahrain and defeated Japan (2:1). In September, the Canadians lost to Uruguay (0:2) and won against Qatar (2:0).

For the Canadian team to get to this World Cup 2022 was a very significant achievement. After all, Canadians have not played in such a major tournament since 1986. Not a single qualification passed from 1990 to 2018. The players of the Canadian national team are unlikely to be able to withstand the pressure of such a landmark championship, so you should not expect beyond the results from them.

Belgium - Canada: who will win?

With each World Cup draw, Belgium strengthens its position. First, the quarterfinal at the World Championship in Brazil, and then 3rd place in Russia, where they lost only to England (0:2).

By names, by individual level - I would advise you to believe in a confident victory for Belgium. The success of Saudi Arabia has shown that clear outsiders should not be underestimated, but I think it was a single moment. The Belgians should easily beat Canada as the Canadians can't handle the pressure without Alphonse Davis.

Of the interesting markets for the match Belgium - Canada, I would note:

• Belgium easy win at 1.53 (most likely outcome)
• Total on goals - over 2.5 for 1.71
• Belgium individual total - over 2 for 2.08
• Both teams to score for 1.83

Prediction: Belgium beat Canada
