Finland vs Belgium Preview
Having scored with their only shot on target in the opening victory against the Danes, Finland were brought back down to earth with a 1-0 defeat against Russia that saw them struggle to create many presentable chances.
Although they may have hoped that Roberto Martinez would rest some key players after seeing his side already qualify, the quality at his disposal means whoever he selects will most likely be a class apart from their opponents.
Indeed, Finland have won just once in eight matches in all competitions, losing four of their most recent five and hitting the net just once in four games.
Finland vs Belgium Tips and Predictions
In contrast, Belgium have suffered only one defeat, secured 21 victories and scored 78 goals over their last 25 matches in all competitions, meaning they are surely worth 5/6 (1.83) odds to win by at least two goals against the underdogs.
