Belgium vs Romania Prediction & Betting Tips - Euro
by Sridhar in Euro Predictions
It's desperation mode for Belgium at Euro 2024! After the biggest shock of matchday one, Belgium will be going all-out to avoid the ignominy of crashing out of the Euros when they take on Romania.
The Group E matchday two fixture at the RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne on Monday will see the Red Devils third in the standings with zero points, while Romania are top with three points.
Another win here would guarantee Romania a spot in the round of 16 and put them in pole position to finish as group leaders, while a defeat would shatter Belgium's hopes. Fortunately for the Belgian fans, the loss to Slovakia was manager Domenico Tedesco's first with the team since taking over in February 2023.
Can Belgium bounce back and stay alive in the tournament? Let's check it out.

Belgium - Romania: Form Analysis
Not many would have thought that Belgium would go into matchday two with a loss. The 1-0 defeat to Slovakia was a harsh result, as they had a couple of goals ruled out. While one of those is definitely contentious, the result undoubtedly puts them under pressure to win here.
Another loss would push them out of contention for a direct knockout berth from this group.
Although they can still qualify as one of the best third-placed teams, Belgium wouldn't want to keep things tight for matchday three. The defeat can be thought of as an exception, as they have eight wins from their last 12 matches. In the Euros too, they have seven wins from their last ten matches, although they will be under pressure to improve here.
Much like Belgium, not many would have given Romania a chance to enter matchday two with a win. That too was a comprehensive 3-0 defeat of Ukraine!
Nicolae Stanciu scored just before halftime to give them a surprise lead. Two goals within a space of five minutes in the second half, before the hour mark, gave them a commanding lead. It was a win out of nowhere considering their poor recent form.
Romania drew three and lost one match before their surprise win to open their tournament. The result also meant they kept three clean sheets in a row.
They can now boost their chances of qualifying for the knockouts if they avoid a defeat here. That would be a historic moment, as the Romanians have reached the knockout stage at the Euros just once in their history.

Belgium & Romania Squad Analysis
Belgium played Yannick Carrasco at left back, which was a surprise, and backfired. Coach Domenico Tedesco will hope that Arthur Theate and Jan Vertongen are fit to play here to bolster his options. Youri Tielemans could be set for a starting role if they revert to a back three while Thomas Meunier is likely to sit out.
Romania don't have too many concerns with their squad. The only question mark is around the fitness of veteran striker Denis Alibec, who is likely to sit out. Even otherwise, they may not tinker with the winning combination against Ukraine.

Our Belgium vs Romania Prediction
Belgium were stunned by Slovakia in their opening match, but the scoreline or the result don't tell the full picture. The Belgians had many chances to score and even had a couple of goals ruled out. Will the lightning strike twice? Romania enjoyed a great matchday one, blanking Ukraine, but can they repeat the feat? It looks highly unlikely, especially since Belgium's progression in the tournament could be at risk if they lose here. Our prediction for Belgium vs Romania is a win for Belgium.
Belgium vs Romania - Other Interesting Predictions
Romelu Lukaku anytime goalscorer
It was a day to forget for Romelu Lukaku against Slovakia, as he missed some glorious chances. There were two potential goals that were ruled out too, one of which was contentious. Regardless, the Belgian forward is in good form, having scored a brace in their last warm-up game before the Euros. He would be itching to get on the score sheet here.
