We once again have a national team break in which the European national teams will compete in the UEFA Nations League. One of the matches we will have will be Italy vs Belgium in group A2. This match will be played next Thursday, October 10 at 8:45 p.m. at the Olympic Stadium in Rome.
Below we leave you with the possible lineups of both teams for this match.
The Italian team led by Luciano Spalletti is first classified in Group A2 of the UEFA Nations League, and a victory against the Belgian team would leave it one and a half feet inside the final phase of the competition. For this match we will be able to see regular players such as Donnarumma, Bastoni or Dimarco, apart from that, we also have players who are also starting to become regulars such as Calafiori. Tonali was already in the previous call after the sanction and repeats in this call.
What Italy’s lineup would look like (3-5-2)
Goalie: Donnarumma
Defenses: Calafiori, Bastoni, Buongiorno
Midfielders: Dimarco, Tonali, Ricci, Frattesi, Bellanova
Forwards: Lucca, Retegui
In a group with teams like France and Italy and with only two being promoted to the next phase of the UEFA Nations League, the Belgians will do everything possible to beat a direct rival such as the Italians. In this call, the strike of heavyweights of the national team such as De Bruyne or Lukaku stands out, who have expressed that they will not return to the national team at least until the next World Cup 2026. Even so, the Belgian team has great talent such as Tielemans, Onana , Lukebakio, Doku or Openda among others. The absence of Courtois due to injury also stands out.
This is what Belgium’s lineup would look like (4-2-3-1)
Goalie: Casteels
Defenses: Castagne, Faes, Debast, Theate
Midfielders: Lukebakio, Tielemans, Onana, Dku, De Ketelaere
Front: Lois Openda
