The draw has placed Belgium in a relatively easy group at EURO 2024. Slovakia, Romania and Ukraine are not worthy opponents for Belgium. If they play at their best, the top spot in the group will be difficult to escape from the hands of Domenico Tedesco's team.

Belgium have had a perfect run-up to EURO 2024. They defeated Montenegro and Luxembourg in friendlies. Their most recent defeat was in the 2022 World Cup group stage when they unexpectedly lost to Morocco.

Since then, Belgium have gone 14 games unbeaten, including 10 wins, which will give them confidence in a successful tournament in Germany.

Meanwhile, Slovakia also had impressive warm-ups before EURO 2024 when defeating San Marino and Wales. However, these are all teams that are not highly rated and have not been able to prove Slovakia's ability.

This will be Slovakia's fourth appearance at a major tournament since the break-up of Czechoslovakia. They have never progressed beyond the last 16 and have won just two of their seven games at the EUROs (D1 L4).

Being underestimated in every aspect, it is difficult for Slovakia to create a surprise against Belgium.

In terms of personnel, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is the most notable absentee for the Belgian team at this year's tournament. The Real Madrid player had a disagreement with Tedesco and will likely be replaced by Koen Casteels.

On the other side of the front line, Slovakia almost has the strongest squad, except for Denis Vavro. This center back is still open to playing.

Expected lineup:

Belgium : Casteels, Castagne, Faes, Vertonghen, Theate, Onana, Mangala, De Bruyne, Trossard, Doku, Lukaku.

Slovakia : Dubravka, Pekarik, Vavro, Skriniar, Hancko, Lobotka, Kucka, Duda, Haraslin, Suslov, Bozenik.

The match between Belgium vs Slovakia takes place at 11:00 p.m. on June 17 (Vietnam time), live on TV360, VTV.
