North Macedonia vs Belgium Prediction and Betting Tips | June 6th 2025

North Macedonia will face Belgium at the Toše Proeski Arena on Friday in another round of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. The home side have a enjoyed a positive start to their qualification campaign and now sit atop Group J with four points from two games as they target their debut World Cup appearance.

They coasted to a 3-0 victory away at Liechtenstein in their group opener featuring goals from three different players including Girona man Bojan Miovski. They then played out a 1-1 draw against Wales in their second match and had looked set to be headed toward maximum points following Miovski's go-ahead strike in the 90th minute before their opponents leveled things up at the death.

Belgium, meanwhile, have endured a difficult run of results over the past year and found themselves in the UEFA Nations League Promotion/Relegation Playoffs last time out. After a poor group stage performance, the Red Devils had to fight for their League A status in the playoffs, losing 3-1 to Ukraine in their first-leg clash before getting the job done on home turf days later with a 3-0 win.

The visitors will begin their World Cup qualifying campaign this weekend and will be keen to kick things off on a positive note.
