Belgium are back in action with another important UEFA Nations League fixture, this time against Poland on Wednesday, 8 June. Both teams have been inconsistent this year and have a point to prove this week.
Poland, who are in second place in Group 4, have been fairly impressive so far in the competition. They edged out Wales 2-1 last weekend and will need to work hard to achieve a similar result on Wednesday.
Belgium, on the other hand, are rooted to the bottom of the group, having endured a dismal campaign so far. The Red Devils suffered a 4-1 defeat at the hands of the Netherlands in their previous game and will be desperate to bounce back.
Belgium vs Poland Head-to-Head
Poland have a surprisingly impressive record against Belgium, having won seven out of the 19 matches played between the two sides. The Red Devils have managed six victories over the Poles and will look to level the scales on Wednesday.
The previous meeting between the two teams took place in 2007 and ended in a 2-0 victory for Poland. Belgium have improved over the years and have a point to prove this week.
