Czech Republic started their journey towards the 2022 World Cup in style, opening their campaign with a 6-2 away win over Estonia. That win wasn’t a surprise, but the real test comes in their home game against Belgium on Saturday. Ranked 42nd, Czech went top of Group E with that win, their third in a row, and with two clean sheets therein. They have four losses in the last 10 matches and failed to score in three of the 10. In the win over Estonia, Czech trailed for about six minutes before the rout started, and against Belgium they should be keen not to start slowly like it was the case against Estonia. Tomas Soucek was the star of the night with three goals in the rout and he will no doubt fancy his chances against Belgium. Czech Republic have seven wins in 10 home matches and 11 of their last 14 home matches have produced over 2.5 goals. They have two wins only in their last nine World Cup qualification matches at home but have scored in 16 straight home matches across all competitions.

Belgium, the best ranked nation in the world head here also having had to come from down, at home to beat Wales 3-1. That they conceded in the game is not a surprise; Belgium have had that problem for a while now and head here with just one clean sheet in eight matches. However, they are on five straight wins and have lost just once in the last 19 matches. In terms of attack, Belgium have some of the best talent in the world and it is partly the reason they easily blow away teams. They have scored two or more goals in eight of their last 10 matches and seven of their last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals. In World Cup qualification matches, Belgium have no loss in the last 21 and away from home in the qualifiers, they have 10 straight wins. In the last 10 away matches in World Cup qualifiers, Belgium have managed to keep seven clean sheets.
