 BRAZIL

Brazil is proving with every single game why they were the favourites to win the tournament. With 3 wins and 1 draw, scoring 6 goals and conceded only 1(from a corner kick in their first game against Switzerland) Selecao is showing great form and football. With every single match, they are becoming more organized and more dangerous, Neymar has become more important in every game and midfielder Philippe Coutinho continues his claim for the tournament's Golden Ball. Tite's side has now remained unbeaten in 15 games (11 wins and 3 draws) and they kept a clean sheet in 8 of their last 9 matches. They also remain unbeaten in 10 games against European opponents (8 wins and 2 draws), conceding just three goals. The statistics are on the Selecao side but they have problems in the team which may reflect the outcome of the game-Marcelo, Danilo and Paulinho are doubtful for the next game, Costa is unfit and Casemiro is suspended. Coutinho, Neymar and Luis are all one booking away from a one-match ban, they should be very careful because the players on the bench are not 100% ready to replace them.

BELGIUM

Belgium qualified for the quarter-finals after a dramatic second-half against Japan. Down two goals with 21 minutes remaining, Belgium made an unlikely comeback to snatch a late winner in the fourth minute of stoppage-time. Belgium have not been shy in front of goal. Roberto Martinez's men have scored 12 goals in four matches. However, the four the team has conceded should be a worry with Brazil on the horizon. Belgium has won their last 9 matches in FIFA World Cup and scored at least 3 goals in 5 of their last 6 games. Their attack is one of the best in the world, but against Brazil, they have to think about defence as well. Playing with 3 defenders in the middle and Meunier and Carasco on the wings may not be the best way to start a game against Selecao. Carasco performance against Japan was horrible(the 2 goals came from the left zone) and he played no defence as well. The changes that Martinez did-putting Chadli and Fellaini in the game bring more power and strength in the middle field which create more empty space for De Bruyne and Hazard to attack. The biggest worry for Martinez will be preventing goals against Brazil. Chadli, Fellaini and Dembele may be very helpful in defence at this match. Meunier, Vertongen and De Bruyne are one booking away from a one-match ban.

 

PREDICTION

The Golden Generation of Belgium football will have one of their biggest tests facing Brazil-the most successful national football team in history. They have met only once in a World Cup Finals- 16 years ago in the 1/8 Finals when Brazil eliminated Belgium and won the tournament after that. Belgium was eliminated from the World Cup four years ago as well at the quarterfinal stage. It was the furthest the Red Devils had reached since 1986. The Brazilians had little difficulty getting past Mexico. The only real talking point was the "fake fouls" and diving claims thrown at Neymar. Coutinho is the guy in the Brazilian team who has to be covered all the time. Belgium will have the chance to win the game if they win the battle in the middle(where Casemiro will be the big missing name) and stop Neymar's runs on the wing. Who will win? We would like to think that will be Belgium, but if they are weak in defence and let Brazil use their speed they will be in a big trouble.
