This should cheer Belgium. Brazil have lost all of their last four World Cup knockout stage matches against European teams, and two of those defeats have come in the quarter-finals. The first of them came against France (0-1) in 2006 and the second against the Netherlands (1-2) in 2010.

When Ronaldinho met his match
The Brazil-France match in 2006 pitted together two of the great No10s of that, and any, era. It turned into a masterclass from Les Bleus' ageing maestro.

Overrated Brazil will be exposed today. I hope my boy Hazard is in form. Kevin and Lukaku will show the samba boys that this is not a skill showcase talent.

Belgium can break a huge psychological barrier today by getting past Brazil. They have the weapons to do it. Even Fellaini can play a part in destroying Brazil today. Will they?

With the abundance of riches at his disposal and the madness that has him benching Dembele, Martinez must be sacked at the whistle if Belgium lose.

Didn't Casemiro get a 2nd yellow card against Mexico? How is he available as a sub? I though he was going to miss this game?

If Belgium play 4 at the back they will win this game.
Both teams are same just cant pick one better than the other.
Starting Marcelo might back fire for Brazil as he likes to go forward.

Marcelo is guaranteed to leave space on that left side. Belgium have to take full advantage.

@Scip, sshhh, they haven’t done the math.
Sausage - 7
Bacon - 5
Beans - 5
Toast - 5
Eggs - 4

26.

WC final July 15th @ 4pm - 7+15+4 = 26.
