BEL vs ITA Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Football Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's Euro 2020 Match - July 2nd, 2021

The UEFA Euro 2020 features yet another high-profile match this weekend as Belgium take on Italy in an important quarterfinal at the Allianz Arena on Friday. Both teams have excellent players in their ranks and have a point to prove in this game.

Belgium are one of the favourites to win the tournament but were not at their best in their 1-0 victory against Portugal. The Red Devils have a few injury concerns at the moment and will have to work hard to win this match.

Italy, on the other hand, have one of the most impressive squads at Euro 2020 and have emerged as bonafide title contenders. The Azzurri have excelled under Roberto Mancini and hold a slight upper hand going into this fixture.

Belgium (BEL) vs Italy (ITA) Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions

Belgium (BEL) vs Italy (ITA) Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions

With Kevin De Bruyne and Eden Hazard unlikely to feature in this match, Romelu Lukaku will have to step up in the final third for Belgium. Thorgan Hazard scored a brilliant goal against Portugal and could also make a difference against Italy.

Ciro Immobile and Lorenzo Insigne have made a difference for Italy on several occasions in the past and are must-haves in this team. Jorginho has become Italy's mainstay in midfield and is also an excellent pick for this team.

Chiellini and Bonucci have plenty of experience against Lukaku and Mancini will likely persist with the seasoned duo in this match. Both Thomas Meunier and Leonardo Spinazzola enjoy forward forays on the flanks and are good options in defence.

The Dream11 Fantasy Suggestion #2 caters to those players backing Belgium to win this game.

Fantasy Suggestion #1

Thibaut Courtois; Leonardo Spinazzola, Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci, Thomas Meunier; Jorginho, Youri Tielemans, Thorgan Hazard; Lorenzo Insigne, Romelu Lukaku (VC), Ciro Immobile (C)

Captain: Ciro Immobile (ITA), Vice-Captain: Romelu Lukaku (BEL)

Fantasy Suggestion #2

Thibaut Courtois; Leonardo Spinazzola, Jan Vertonghen, Leonardo Bonucci, Thomas Meunier; Nicolo Barella, Youri Tielemans, Thorgan Hazard; Lorenzo Insigne (VC), Romelu Lukaku (C), Ciro Immobile

Captain: Romelu Lukaku (BEL), Vice-Captain: Lorenzo Insigne (ITA)
