Group 1 of League A in the Nations League is extremely competitive! To kick off this new edition, Italy and Belgium will face off this Friday at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. After failing to qualify for the last World Cup, the Squadra Azzurra is looking to return to the top. The team has also welcomed Roberto Mancini back as head coach. He’s determined to get off to the best possible start with the Italian national team following this first major showdown.
Belgium arrives with a bit more confidence. After all, they made it all the way to the quarterfinals of the 2026 World Cup, where they lost only to the eventual champion: Spain (2-1). However, that didn’t stop Rudi Garcia from stepping down as head coach, replaced by Mark van Bommel. The Red Devils’ new coach knows expectations are high for his debut. He’ll be aiming for an excellent result on this road trip to Rome.
