BELGIUM V WALES:
Chris Coleman takes his side to the King Baudouin Stadium tomorrow with Wales top of Groub B and their hosts in third
THE LIKELY LINE-UPS :
Belgium (4-3-3): Courtois (Chelsea); Vanden Borre (Anderlecht), Alderweireld (Southampton), Lombaerts (Zenit), Vertonghen (Tottenham, Capt); Witsel (Zenit), Dembele (Tottenham), Fellaini (Man Utd); Januzaj (Man Utd), Benteke (Aston Villa), Hazard (Chelsea).
Wales (4-4-1-1): Hennessey (Crystal Palace); Gunter (Reading), Chester (Hull), A Williams (Swansea, Capt), Taylor (Swansea); Allen (Liverpool), Huws (Wigan), Ramsey (Arsenal), Ledley (Crystal Palace); Bale (Real Madrid); Robson-Kanu (Reading).
TEAM NEWS :
Belgium are without Steven Defour, Kevin Mirallas and Thomas Vermaelen while the hammer blow of Vincent Kompany’s absence with a calf tear adds to the worry of a weakened defence, Toby Alderweireld likely to move from right-back to the centre. The quality of Marc Wilmots’ squad means there are tight calls all over the pitch with Nacer Chadli, Kevin de Bruyne, Dries Mertens and Romelu Lukaku able to step into the side.
Wales have a relatively clean bill of health – only David Edwards, Andy King, Jonny Williams and Simon Church missing from the last camp – but Coleman is likely to stick with the players in the shirt in some cases meaning James Chester and Chris Gunter will keep out the fit-again James Collins and Adam Matthews while Ben Davies loses out to Neil Taylor. A 4-4-2 diamond is a possible option for Coleman with a compact midfield given width by attacking full-backs, Gareth Bale deployed behind Hal Robson-Kanu in attack.
