Finland will go head-to-head with Belgium in the matchday 3 of Euro 2020 Group B at Krestovsky Stadium on Monday. The kick-off is at 21:00 CEST.

Preview

Finland managed to claim a 1-0 victory against Denmark in their European Championship opener but arguably no one would deny the fact that they claimed that win mainly due to Christian Eriksen's collapse which certainly harmed the Danes' morale on that evening in Copenhagen. Therefore, Markku Kanerva's men have gone on to prove their status as the Group B underdogs in a 1-0 loss to Russia in the following game.

Belgium, in turn, have already secured their place in the last-16 round after beating the Russians and the Danes 3-0 and 2-1 respectively. Roberto Martinez's men will now be looking to extend their unbeaten streak to 12 games across all competitions and thus finish top of their group.

Team news

Timothy Castagne's Euro campaign was cut short after the Russia win as the right-back suffered facial fractures in Saint Petersburg. Thorgan Hazard, meanwhile, won't take part in this one due to a minor injury. The Finnish side, on the other hand, have no injury absentees in their set-up.

Prediction

Only a victory on Monday would secure the knock-out stage qualification for Kanerva's side so they will be eager to prove their critics wrong against the Belgians. Martinez's men, for their part, would certainly want to finish top of the Group B to hand themselves a boost in the last-16 round. Thus, we can't see anything but a confident victory for the world's top-ranked national team at Krestovsky Stadium.
