Belgium v Switzerland Preview and Prediction

Date/Time: Friday 12^th October 2018 (Kick-off 7:45)

On Friday night, Belgium and Switzerland go head-to-head in the Nations League A, as both teams look to take command of Group 2.

Belgium kicked off their Nations League campaign with a 3-0 victory in Iceland, while Switzerland hammered the Nordic nation 6-0 in their opener.

Belgium heads into this clash having suffered just one defeat from their last 28 international matches. That one loss was in the World Cup semi-final against France in Russia.

The defeat is the Red Devils only blip in their last 11 games, as Roberto Martinez’s side have won ten of their last 11 outings. The home side has also scored at least twice in nine of those aforementioned 11 matches.
