Belgium - USA (H / T under0.5)

With substantial absences Belgium and full of players and energy America. The difference in capacity is balanced and we expect to be eliminated with the winner coming out of a very tough test.

Arena Fonte Nova, Salvador
Referee: Djamel Haimoudi (Algeria)

BELGIUM
He has been honored so far by those who felt that the presence of Belgium in this event would be highly competitive and this seemed clear in the first round where Mark Vilmoch's team made the ultimate defeat, having even the best defense with just one goal. For today, however, there is skepticism, as there are some problems with absences in the back. They will definitely miss the punished Deufur (M) and injured Bore (A), while Confans (A) and Vermeellen (A) are doubtful,

USA.
Ultimately, Klinsmann did not have to take any of their compatriots as Portugal's 2-1 victory over Ghana sent the Americans to 16 thanks to the best goal difference. With no consequences for 0-1 from the Germans, for an America that has made all three known fights and the football tsunami that characterizes it in its presence. Qualification, if anything, is in principle justified by the federal technician who has been severely criticized before the World Cup for the exclusion of some players. Extremely questionable is that Antitor (E) has not completely overcome his injury.

ASSESSMENT: A strong confrontation between two teams, which among the positive elements that we showed in the first phase, was stability. So we do not expect any precipitation or spectacular outburst from one or the other group. We think that the first concern of both will be to neutralize the opponent, in a queue, due to the physical and critical nature of the fight. Very likely UNDER, but at such a profitable price we do not touch it and we prefer to risk the under 0.5 goal in the first half (to come 0-0) that exists at 2.55 at stoiximan.gr as in the first half we expect one to learn the game of the other and to look patiently to find holes in the system but at the same time to guard her back as a goal may be enough to throw out any team that accepts it. Besides, both teams and especially Belgium score very late and many goals have been put in the last 20 minutes of each match.
