Belgium – Tunisia

Belgium hosts Tunisia in Brussels, International Friendly match held on Saturday 7 June.

Belgium had a string of poor games in late 2013 / early 2014 but since they rounded up for the World Cup they have played very well. Two friendlies in the last two weeks, two solid wins with handicap: 2-0 vs. Sweden, 5-1 vs. Luxembourg. Still it has to be said that Sweden was missing some key players and also Ibrahimovic, and Luxembourg of course was not a worth opponent. Belgium has an amazing team and is viewed by many even as a dark horse to win the World Cup. Marc Wilmots will play the best lineup today hoping to get a feel of what his team can do in the last pre – World Cup friendly.

Belgium lineup: Courtois – Alderweireld, Kompany, Vermaelen, Vertonghen – Witsel, Fellaini – Mirallas, de Bruyne, Hazard – Lukaku

Tunisia missed the World Cup in a playoff with Cameroon, but they represent a decent bunch. Tunisia showed some great progress and strength in the last 2 friendly games and got 2 very good results: 1-1 with Colombia and 1-0 with South Korea. Both games were away from home and the Tunisians will be very happy with the performance they put in. For sure they will look for another similar performance and result today vs. Belgium.

Tunisia lineup: Ben Mustapha – Mathlouthi, Abdennour, Ben Youssef, Mohsni, Ben Djemia – Ben Yahia, Nater, Dhaouadi, Mikari – Jemaa

There is no debate that Belgium is a great team with amazing individual talent, but Tunisia are no pushovers themselves. I think there is value in the odds for Tunisia because most punters are going on Belgium with all sorts of handicaps. We all saw that big teams did not push too hard in these pre – World Cup international friendlies in order not to risk injuries and I think this will be the case for Belgium as well. When the underdog is capable, surprises will happen, and Tunisia for sure is a quality opponent for the hosts. If Tunisia repeats the last two performances for sure they will keep this game close and maybe even get a result. My tip will be Tunisia to cover the 1,5 goalS handicap. Correct score prediction: Belgium – Tunisia 2-1.
