Belgium vs Costa Rica Today’s Soccer Prediction
Belgium – Costa Rica – For both teams, the third and final test before the start of Mundial, with Belgium in the first two doubles played on home court, scored a draw and a win, while the Costa Rican players downgraded S. Ireland 3-0 , but lost a second home away from England. Overall, a draw without a defeat for the Belgians is very long, and Costa Rica has largely lost matches recently and has been defeated for five of the previous seven. For Belgium, this is a good uvertire ahead of the Panama duo, while Costa Rica will play against Serbia in the first round of Mundial.
Belgium
The Belgians can be satisfied with the first two control matches in the preparations for the Mundial tournament, and certainly they expect this third test to go as they have imagined. The first check was strongest, and the rival Portugal had a good pair of matches, so the match ended without a goal. The second opponent was Egypt, and it was already expected to completely dominate what happened, since the rival was without its biggest star.
The selector Martinez obviously already has a vision for the Belgians to play at the championship and therefore after a draw against Portugal, he did not change the initial composition much. He missed the footsteps of Kompany for his injuries and jumped into his place Ciman while in the midfield instead of Dembelea, played Witsel. They celebrated with 3: 0 and it was the fourth game in a row in which they did not receive a goal. Now maybe there will be new changes in the team and the opportunity from the first minute will get Fellaini, Batshuayi and Boyata.
The likely starting line of Belgium: Courtois – Alderweireld, Boyata, Vertonghen – Meunier, Fellaini, de Bruyne, Carrasco – Mertens, E.Hazard – Batshuayi
Costa Rica
The Costa Rican players played their first match on their own pitch and the opponent was indifferent. The selection of Northern Ireland did not place on the Mundial and did not play in the strongest form, which Costa Rica maximized to celebrate 3: 0 and the fans flocked to euphoria in Europe. Still, before the Mundial, they planned two more strong checks and already against England in Leeds was much different compared to the match against Iraq. They lost 2: 0 and were expected to be in a subordinate position, because the English are still better.
They received one goal in the opening match and one in the finals, although they logically closed something more than against the S.Ireland. Goalkeeper Navas was once again in the standings, although he had previously left the game in the first round, and there were some other changes. In the last line there were no Acosta and O.Duartea, while this time one of the greatest stars B.Ruiz remained on the bench. Now, he could finally be on the court from the first minute, and he should return and mention O.Duarte. It is possible that there will be a setup in the field, which will also start the match against Serbia.
The likely starting lineup of Costa Rica: Navas – Gamboa, Gonzalez, O.Duarte, Oviedo – Guzman, Borges – J.Campbell, Venegas, B.Ruiz – Urena

The Belgians, in the final test, want to show their strength and excuse themselves from the fans with a new win, although they may not be in the strongest form. Attacking quality is unquestionable and will surely shake the opponent’s net, but maybe this time he gets a goal and the match is effective.
