10 Unmissable Group Stage Fixtures At World Cup 2018

1. England Vs. Belgium (June 28)

The game that had mouths watering from the moment the draw was made, England vs Belgium on June 28 is set to be one of the highlights of the group stage and should also be one of the most dramatic encounters, as it will be one of the last two group games to be played, with Panama clashing with Tunisia at the same time.

If everything goes to plan for Belgium and England, this game will determine which of the two sides tops the group and which one finishes second. If the match ends in a draw, goal difference could be the deciding factor, but both teams will be going for the win.

Belgium are an incredible side with top class talents like Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku, and Jan Vertonghen, but England have got a world class striker in the form of Harry Kane and some great quality players all over the pitch. Many of these players know each other from the Premier League and it should be a highly entertaining game for neutrals, as well as a real nail-biter for England and Belgium fans.
