Belgium enters their Euro 2024 opener against Slovakia as clear favorites, boasting an unbeaten streak in the qualifiers and a full-strength squad. Their attacking duo of Romelu Lukaku, who scored 14 goals in qualifying, and Kevin De Bruyne, with 14 goal contributions in the Premier League, poses a significant threat to Slovakia's defense. Jeremy Doku's pace and trickery could further expose Slovakia's vulnerabilities.
Slovakia faces a daunting task in containing Belgium's offensive firepower. Their midfield duo, Ondrej Duda and David Hancko, known for their physicality, might struggle against Belgium's technically gifted midfield.
Slovakia's chances of containing Belgium's attacking onslaught seem slim, and the match is likely to be a one-sided affair. We predict a 3-0 victory for Belgium
