What to Expect from Belgium in 2026
Belgium’s campaign will heavily depend on the form of their senior players, especially Kevin De Bruyne, who is expected to feature in his final World Cup appearance. His creativity in midfield, combined with Lukaku’s finishing ability, gives Belgium a strong attacking core.
The presence of experienced defenders like Thomas Meunier also adds depth and stability to the backline.
After their early exit in the 2022 edition, Belgium will be motivated to prove that their “golden generation” still has one last major run left in them.
Final Thoughts
Belgium enter the FIFA World Cup 2026 with expectations of a strong group-stage performance and a deeper knockout push than in 2022. With a well-rounded squad and experienced leadership, they remain one of the teams to watch in Group G.
If they find early momentum, Belgium could once again emerge as a serious contender on the world stage.
